Joey Chestnut can gobble down, in a hurry, just about any kind of food that is put in front of him, regardless of the shape or the heat it delivers.

Every one knows about the hot dogs, with Chestnut a perennial champ of the annual Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest on July 4 in Coney Island.

But tacos are no problem, either, as he showed again Saturday on day 2 of the Taco Truck Throwdown in Fresno, California, to win the World Taco Eating Championship.

Chestnut gave those on hand a show when he stuffed down 92 carne asada tacos in 8 minutes to claim victory.
