I was counting on you to see if you have this dish but of course you know it 😃
I see the knedlÃky is similar to other languages the article mentions.
As about the record holder, that's just sheer stupid. I like contests, but eating till you get sick is just stupid. I am wondering how that "champion" felt the next day 😳
Right. I´m known as a very avid eater who really eats a lot but I haven´t participated in any eating contest and I´m not planning to do that. Eating till you get sick is quite disgusting and it´s also a waste of food in a way, which is something I hate. I mentioned the contest just to illustrate how popular this meal is in my country ;) Most Czech people totally love the plum dumplings.
I understand that and no worries, was never my intention to criticize.
You are right though, about the food waste. I've seen contests where after the contest finished, most of the contestants threw the food up.
Dumplings are popular here too :)
