    FYI Beard, courgette is what the Brits call zucchini. Okra is the seed pod of the Abelmoschus esculentus plant, zucchini/courgette is the fruit of the Cucurbita pepo plant.

    @returo7297 2 місяці тому +1

    In competitive eating, managing the sensation of fullness and continuing to eat is crucial. Here’s how hot and cold drinks can affect this:
    Cold Drinks: They can sometimes help by numbing the stomach slightly, which might make it easier to continue eating after feeling full. They can also help in cooling down the body if you've been eating heavily.
    Hot Drinks: These can aid digestion and potentially stimulate appetite. However, they might also contribute to a feeling of fullness due to their heat, which could be counterproductive if you're trying to eat more.
    For competitive eating, experimenting with both types of drinks to see which helps you manage fullness and continue eating more effectively is important. Many competitive eaters use cold drinks to help with the physical space in their stomachs and reduce the feeling of being overly full.
