pie eating
Devouring baked desserts
Pie eating is the competitive or recreational consumption of pie, typically as a speed-eating contest at fairs and festivals.
Contestants race to finish a pie—often with hands behind their backs, face-first into the filling: The Fourth of July celebration featured a pie eating contest.
The image evokes gleeful messiness and small-town Americana.
