Pie ---> contest
(I was chosen to represent the girls' side of our summer camp in a pie eating contest when I was 11. The boy's side had to choose their biggest and fastest eater out of more than a hundred boys. Our counselor led me to the ring where I was dismayed to see that the boy who had been chosen was none other than my brother, the bottomless pit, having his hands tied behind his back for the competition. I managed to beat him by deviously plunging my entire face into my banana cream pie and lessening the actual amount I had to ingest (Thank goodness for all that Farrah Fawcett hair!). Neither of us had banana cream pie for close to three decades after that.
