THUNDER BAY – There’s a new persian-eating champ on the block in Thunder Bay, disrupting years of dominance by two local kings of the competition.
Competitors are tasked with devouring 10 of the iconic confections in 10 minutes – a feat that’s not yet been achieved, though some have come achingly close. “When I got to eight, I thought, I don’t know if I can do it,” he said. “Then I took a couple of sips of water and was like, ‘I’m okay.’” After all was said and done, Currie wasn’t lamenting the loss of his crown; On the contrary, he said he was “quite pleased” at the challenge from a new and worthy competitor, after trading wins with former champion Stan Alto since the contest originated.The sweet fried buns topped with pink icing were invented in the 1940s by local Bennett's Bakery, and have since become a widely-recognized symbol of Thunder Bay.
