Maybe you can. Maybe you can't. It could be impossible. You never know until you try. I bet Takeru Kobayashi could do it. This guy's a champ many times over, and even holds the world
record in burger eating at 97 (White Castle sized, but that's still pretty damn serious). As Willie Randolph would say to Joe Torre, "Yeah that's a lot of meat."
McDonald's double cheeseburgers are hefty, succulent, and a dollar a piece. Based on price alone I'm surprised that McDonald's doesn't host a double cheeseburger eating competition. It's done wonders for Nathan's reputation. 
But then again, Nathan's doesn't spend copious amounts of money on litigation defending themselves against ridiculous class action lawsuits that eventually get thrown out because even a judge knows better than to let a bunch of parent's sue because of their inability to overcome a childs sedentary lifestyle.
McDonalds does manage to send the right message to the general public through advertising. It's not like the stuff is bad for you or anything right?
Despite all this rambling about McDonald's I do have a point. While there are a handful of gifted individuals that have the raw talent, determination, and skill to eat 10 double cheeseburgers, it is easier said than done.
A friend of AoF, M.D.C. has made wild drunken (and sober) claims that he can eat TEN double cheeseburgers with ease. These claims have never been backed up by actual performance. In fact at a Super Bowl party he was presented, Sneak King Style (ok, technically mook-king style) with a pyramid of ten double cheeseburgers on a silver platter. The challenge was met with great protest, and when the dust settled, NINE double cheeseburgers remained.
Even Harvard would put up a better showing than that. Pathetic. Now I know some people might take issue with my criticism. But I KNOW I can't eat ten double cheeseburgers. Hell, I can't eat ten White Castle cheeseburgers. But if you make the call, you gotta back it up. Even this douchebag stepped up and documented his odyssey. I'll tell you what, I need to move to Texas, so I can partake in a challenge worthy of note. It's one thing to eat ten double cheeseburgers. It's entirely different to claim you can eat 10 double cheeseburgers but never attempt to back up your assertion of fact.
Kobayashi would be disappointed.

knowing the picture of friend of aof m.d.c. was going to be used in a future post created some lofty expectations. A lesser blogger may have caved as it would have been easy to fall short of such expectations. but not the whip. everything we had hoped and more. well done sir.
