Greggs fan smashes 5,000 calorie eating challenge in just 3 minutes and bags cash prize

A Greggs lover has earned himself a cash prize after he managed to wolf down 14 treats from the popular bakery chain in just three minutes - including six pasties, four sausage rolls, and four doughnuts.

Max Stanford, 35, scoffed a staggering 5,000 calories as part of an online contest held by the British Eating League (BEL), which challenged him to eat four steak bakes, two chicken bakes, four sausage rolls, two pink jammie doughnuts, and two caramel custard doughnuts.

The charity worker demolished the bakery snacks in just three minutes and nine seconds, beating all his competitors by a huge margin and bagging himself a cash prize of £100.
