"While I have and continue to partner with a variety of companies, including some in the plant-based space, those relationships were never a conflict with my love for hot dogs."
"This event means the world to me. It's a cherished tradition, a celebration of American culture, and a huge part of my life."
Joey Chestnut, a dominant figure in competitive eating, is returning to the Nathan's Famous Fourth of July Hot Dog Eating Contest after being banned for a year. His ban was a direct result of his association with the plant-based brand Impossible Foods. However, he has clarified his allegiance to Nathan's, proclaiming it integral to his identity and traditions surrounding the event. With a record of 16 wins and a remarkable performance in 2021, Chestnut resumes competing in what he views as a quintessential American celebration.
