Reigning Pregnant Kraut-Eating Champion Captures Title
Brenda Lashley seven months pregnant won the women's World Kraut Eating Championship at the Franksville Kraut Festival. She ate over a pound of kraut in two minutes to claim the trophy and $100, aided by a strategy of avoiding the crowd and keeping her focus on the plate. The 52nd festival began in 1949, now backed by The Fremont Co. with 14 other women, 14 men, and 15 teenagers competing in various rounds.
