@chinaminutes: POV: your childhood habit of secretly eating in class just became a real competition in China 😂 More than 2,000 people joined Ningbo’s first-ever “sneaky rice porridge eating contest,” held inside a shopping mall transformed into a fake classroom complete with desks, blackboards and roaming teachers. Contestants had 10 minutes to secretly finish a bowl of Ningbo-style rice porridge without getting caught eating. Anyone spotted had to stand at the front of the classroom or at their table for 30 seconds. And getting caught three times meant elimination. Participants ranged from schoolchildren to retirees, with some hiding behind textbooks while others waited for the teacher to turn around before quickly eating. Local reports said primary school students were unexpectedly the best at the challenge, with many avoiding punishment entirely. But a man in his 30s eventually won the competition using what organisers described as “fast, accurate and steady” sneaky eating techniques. He home a 1-gram gold rice grain worth around ¥1,400 ($206/ £153) 💭Would you compete in a competition like this? 👇🏼 ——— #foodchallenge #schooldays #contest #corememory #viralchallenge
