If you’re a PB&J lover, have you ever wondered who might love them more than you? Patrick Bertoletti consumed 42 PB&Js in 10 minutes, which is a lot of PB&Js in such a short amount of time. Many people eat less than that in an entire year, so imagine eating that many PB&Js! One PB&J contains 400 calories, so 400 calories times 42 is 16,80. That is a lot of calories in 10 minutes. Patrick Bertoletti was born on June 6, 1985. He is a competitive eater from Chicago, winning many competitions, including the Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest and the first-ever world poutine eating competition. It’s hard for us to pinpoint who made the first-ever PB&J, but we do know who made the first recipe, which was Julia Davis Chandler. The recipe was created in 1901; it appeared in the Boston Cooking School Magazine of Culinary Science and Domestic Economics.
