KIEV (Reuters) - A 77-year-old Ukrainian man won a jar full of sour cream for coming first in a dumpling eating contest and then promptly died, local media reported on Wednesday.

Ivan Mendel ate 10 dumplings in half a minute to win first place and a one-liter jar of sour cream in the contest held in the town of Tokmak in the southeastern Zaporizhya region on September 18, Fakty I Kommentarii newspaper said.

Shortly afterwards, Mendel became unwell and died, according to local news websites.

Dumplings, called "vareniki" in the former Soviet republic, are a staple of Ukrainian cuisine and are often stuffed with a range of fillings from mushrooms to cherries.

Don't just open your mouth and prove yourself a fool....put it in writing.

It gets harder the more you know. Because the more you find out, the uglier everything seems.

Eric has nothing to apologize for. He's been told he's welcome to participate by the only people who matter - Site Admin and the moderating team. Some of you may have decided to roll back the welcome

You never did anything that bad. Don't let the bullies get to you.

You seem to. It seems to have really chapped your chops that he's back. You owe a fair amount of apologies yourself, too. Your horse is alittle high, I think.

Then I suppose an apology to the people you offended in the most egregious manner imaginable isn't out of the question, is it, Eric?

This seems strange. Ten vareniki isn't actually an inordinately large amount of food. Most people could eat it in one sitting easily. I suppose the part about eating it in 30 seconds is important but I can only imagine that he lodged something in his throat or ripped something internally on the way down. Otherwise it makes little sense.
