Baked beans and haggis .. for breakfast
"Steakbellie"

Drexel Hill has two serious eaters, both of whom broke world eating records Wednesday morning on the "Preston & Steve" show on WMMR.

Micah "Wing Kong" Collins ate 5 pounds, 4 ounces of baked beans in 58 seconds, breaking the International Federation of Competitive Eating's record of 1 minute, 25 seconds. (And surely breaking something else for the rest of the day.)

Next, Eric "Steakbellie" Livingston (left) ate 3 pounds of the Scottish treat haggis (sheep heart, lungs and intestines, roasted with oatmeal in a sheep's stomach) in 8 minutes. The record (1 pound in 2 minutes, 5 seconds) was held by a Scotsman.

Now if you'll excuse me, I have this yen to watch "Braveheart" again...
