food competition

Competitive consuming event

Food competition is a contest centered on food—either consuming it or preparing it.

Eating competitions test speed or quantity: He won the hot dog eating competition.

Cooking competitions judge skill, creativity, or taste.

The phrase also describes rivalry for food resources among animals or organisms: Food competition between species intensifies during drought.
