Eat Your Face Off!

If you're one of those Harvard students who's been missing the local cuisine throughout J-Term, you may be in luck. The opportunity has come to indulge in as much greasy fast food as you can, with the added benefit of a prize incentive—and eternal glory for yourself and Harvard.

This month, Qdoba is launching its Sixth Annual Rice and Bean Pot, a burrito eating contest and benefit for Kevin Youkilis Hits for Kids.

Up to 25 teams of four can compete from each individual college in the preliminary rounds. The competition to determine which team will represent Harvard will take place on Saturday, Feb. 6 at 4 p.m. in the Harvard Square Qdoba. The team with the toughest tummies will then face off against the other schools (including competitors from Boston University, Boston College, and Northeastern University) on Feb. 10, at an event headlined by “Bad Rabbits,” a Boston-area band. The winning team will win four tickets to Mexico. The tickets are non-refundable, meaning it will be impossible to spend their value on a personal trainer afterward, but the opportunity to eat authentic burritos in Mexico is probably too good to pass up.
