book chronicles Nerz's experiences and observations from having emceed several eating contests over the course of a
year. What's even better is that there's another book out on the subject, entitled Horseman of the
Esophagus. Incidentally, both have hot dogs on their covers. In the Salon interview, Nerz talks about some of
the more hotly contested subjects in the world of competitive eating, namely the "belt of fat" theory, which
