In a 2002 contest, Lerman ate seven and a half quarter-pound sticks in five minutes -- a record that still stands. (almost 2 lbs.)
The butter was refrigerated, so it was like biting into a hard ice-cream cone. Except that when you eat something like ice cream, you get a sense of deliciousness that draws you to eat more. Not with butter. In fact, after the first stick, it didn't even taste like butter. It didn't taste like anything. It coats your mouth like axle grease, so it's hard to swallow.
You really have to push yourself. A lot of people get tired from the fat very quickly. It slows down your metabolism, your vigor. I took smaller bites, making sure I swallowed before going on to the next stick. That made it a little easier. Afterward, I felt bloated, like at Thanksgiving dinner. I'm dairy intolerant, so the butter really turned my stomach. It was like taking a couple bottles of mineral oil. Everything came out of my system, even that piece of undigested fruitcake from eight Christmases ago. Then I felt fine. I had a bagel with butter the next day.

There used to be a commercial, maybe for butter?, and there is this big pat of unmelted butter on the guy's english muffin and at the end of the commercial he would take a big bite, right through the unmelted butter, used to make me so ill. I don't know why .
