[@kymaragaskins-stephens6993]

I don’t know how I stumbled across your channel. I literally don’t watch stuff like this usually.. but I am obsessed! I’ve gone down a rabbit hole for sure! Lol much love from West Virginia!

[@jimsmisadventuresinbeekeeping]

Katina has great content, I love watching her challenges, you will too.

[@CoCoBliss4]

Me toooooo!!!!! I love her so much. Favorite channel. What am I doing?!!! Hahahahaha!!!!! Let’s gooooo Katina!!

[@mbaliheals]

Same and now I can't stop watching her 🐇🤣

[@alexischarest378]

Me too!!!

[@naomivanderwateren8235]

Same! And I watched a few others the past week, but Katina is the only one I like to watch. 😊

[@charlesbeall2589]

We really appreciate how classy and family friendly your videos are. People notice.

[@deedeegreen8338]

Placing 6th on your first challenge was really impressive, Katina. It must have been a morale booster. You are well on your way to becoming a force to be reckoned with in the eating contest world. All that chewing made my jaw feel tired 🍕😩

[@KatinaEatsKilos]

Ahhh thank you Deedee!!

[@MadChiller]

Great job on your first official contest!You looked like you had a lot of fun eating some 'zza, won $50 and got yourself a groovy t-shirt! Not too shabby, lil buddy. With a little more training you can def place top 3 easily. Remember "Pie of the Tiger" . Take care, Katina. Peace out, Chad :-)

[@KatinaEatsKilos]

Ehehehe thank you Chad!!! I had a blast for sure! Cheers, mate!

[@Theredbaron09]

Congratulations Katina! Super proud of you! It's not easy to step in there and go toe to toe with people who do that style of eating for a living.

[@cityjill23]

You did great, Katina! I like how you differentiated between "competitive eating" as opposed to "professional restaurant eating" in your portion at the end of the video. They're truly two totally different events. I love your videos and can't wait for the next one. BTW you look super adorable in this video with your hat on and hair pulled back!

[@christophermichaels6569]

Made me smile when I saw you “placed”! $50 is $50 congrats you kicked some butt!! I would have eaten one slice in 10 minutes 😂

[@TheHealeyum]

Very nice edit on the video Katina! It was good to see the contest from your perspective while my video sits on my big backlog haha. Once again, it was a genuine pleasure to meet you, congratulations on a great debut and looking forward to eating with you again!

[@KatinaEatsKilos]

Was awesome to meet you, Brett! Thanks a ton for being so awesome - hope to meet ya again very soon 😄

[@chasjacks9378]

Esper is a major big time pizza eater. Seen him doing many pizza challenges. Three through six was within a slice. Katina should be proud.

[@cjdesign5700]

AMAZING JOB Katina! Very Champ worthy!

[@breezy270]

Way to go Katina!!! You should be very proud of how you competed against professionals. Truly awesome 👏🏻

[@mpthorvonericksen]

When my good friend, opened a brwery in Harrisonburg, VA we had 4 slices from Benny Sorentino's. To Anyone watching this video, these slices are LARGE. Being a NJ guy, it's actually good pizza too. Cheers to you Katina; that is ALOT of pizza.

[@koilamaoh4238]

Love these kind of contests, rare to see. Good job.

I had Benny’s for FUN because I lived in Roanoke and we had a location there (40 minutes away from Blacksburg), can’t even fathom someone eating the whole gigantic pizza 😮 impressive!

I didn't realize the crew was so huge. Everybody knows the rules 🍕

[@colingrimes4632]

Awesome work! I see Jeff won it. Love both of your channels. Would be amazing colab.

[@MrIrrelevanT021]

That looked like more than 4+ slices. Well done Katina. Esper is a true king and am not surprised when I heard his name he would be victorious.

[@veggiepowered]

I'am your newest subscriber great videos

[@MichaelG63]

Outstanding, Katina! Great job for your first competitive eating event! That pizza looked okay, but the crust looked brutal.

[@iiiinicoleiiii]

Geoff is one of the best ever. He isnt just a bad ass eater he is a great person too. Good job girl you did great too!

[@centarisky2185]

Yes! I can't wait to see you in more pro contests!

That "Blood in, blood out" comment followed by MJ with "Get some help" was absolutely flawless and unexpected at the same time.

[@joeheid4757]

Finally an independant steps up to the big leagues! One thing to do a challenge on your terms, on your schedule. Another to be told when to so it. You watching Molly!? Katino did it. Much respect to her.

[@supastaw]

You look so cute with your hat on Katina! The eating contest seem to be a different beast altogether because you can't really relax when your jaws hurt from chewing. Anywho its always good to see you Katina and I look forward to seeing you in WVA.

[@laurenschenck5355]

Welcome to Virginia you can do it Katina! ❤️

Great job! I love how positive you are! Some times it really helps me, thanks.

[@KatinaEatsKilos]

I'm so glad! Cheers!

[@HansSiemons]

I always compare certain type of food challenges as "a show" vs "the circus". Nice to you see in the circus this time :) Well done!

[@KatinaEatsKilos]

Haha thanks Hans!!! This was definitely more of a fun/organized chaos eh?!

[@davidgoodman6924]

Geoff Esper, the 2nd best eater in the World...you placing 6th is very impressive. Keep it up!

[@gregoryschmidt1233]

A really good, VERY thin crispy crust pizza in Milwaukee is Maria's Pizza, on Forest Home, near Alverno.

[@tommyboy6267]

11:07 Katina...Dude...that guy next to you looked like he was going to HURL.

[@vandervecken2577]

Top job, in the money on your first attempt. Excellent work🙂👍🏻x

[@shawnmandel5215]

Wow, that was awesome. Greasy job!!!

[@AkumaHado]

Hell yeah another challenge 💪💪💪

[@ronsandgren1]

I watched Darron's video of this challenge yesterday morning but your video was better quality and I saw him film you in his. He didn't make the top three in this contest and maybe 4th place. Congrats on you taking 6th place in your first professional eating contest against all men too that's awesome!

[@tinkcraig3704]

Good job! Especially for your first competition. Congratulations.

[@KatinaEatsKilos]
