Nathan's Hot Dog eating contest sure don't support their superstars.

They banned Kobayashi in the 2010 because he didn't want to sign a contract that would bar him from participating in non Major League Eating events.

Now they've banned Joey Chestnut because he took a sponsorship with Impossible Foods.

Nathan's more than likely has nothing to do with Imp[possible Foods and gets nothing.

It's all about the bucks.

I think they viewed Impossible Foods as a competitor.
