Kinoshita Yuka is a Japanese Youtube star (and competitive eater) famous for posting videos of herself wolfing down insane amounts of food — all in one go. She's feasted on stuff like 100 packets of mochi (each cooked a different way), 4kg of katsu curry with rice, three entire birthday cakes, and two jars of cookie butter spread on a towering stack of sliced bread. But it's her latest endeavour that got Singaporeans talking. Thanks to a Taiwanese fan who sent her packets of Singapore laksa instant noodles, she took up the challenge and added shrimp, eggs, onion and seaweed to her gigantic bowl, which weighed in at 4.3kg. Each bite is peppered with commentary on the dish and endearing exclamations of the delicious flavour, and before you know it, she's inhaled the entire thing, even the spicy broth. Watch the video below to see it for yourself.
