Mysuru: While Meese Eregowda emerged victorious after he gulped down seven ragi balls (three-and-a-half kg in total) in 15 minutes flat at a ‘Ragi Mudde – Naati Koli saaru’ (ragi balls – country chicken curry) eating competition at Mangala village near Mandya recently, Lalitha Puttegowda from Paduvarahalli gulped 6 idlies in just a minute at the idli eating competition held for women as part of Dasara yesterday.
The competition was organised at the Scouts and Guides Grounds by Dasara Aahara Mela Sub-Committee and each competitor was given 6 idlies, each weighing 200 grams. While many women struggled to eat the mouthful idlies, it was a child’s play for Lalitha Puttegowda who polished the plate in less than a minute.
