What is a Taco Eating Contest? Who are we? Be a part of the largest growing community of Taco Loving foodies. San José is home to the only MLE sanctioned Taco Eating Contest in Northern California. The Chachos Taco tastes great but try scarfing down 103 in less than 8 minutes. Part salsa, part carne asada, part tortilla, this festival is one for the books. In 2015, Matt Stoney took the belt for the second time as Chachos Taco Champion, beating his own record of 101 Tacos in 8 minutes, eating his way through 103 tacos in 8 minutes. This competition brings out over a dozen eaters, many of them professional competitors who want to earn the right to be called Chachos Taco Champion and take home not only a sizable belt but serious prize dollars to go with it.
