All,

As much as I think Twix would be awesome and truly worthing of a wondrous and challenging celebration event, the people have spoken. Ice cream novelty it is.

Down to two contenders:
1) Ice cream sandwiches. Seems like most US people should have easy access to almost identical 150-160 cal cheap store brand ice cream sandwiches (I checked a handful of major stores).
2) Snickers bars. Also cheap (~$3/6-pack) and easily accessible.

Please indicate if you're interested in those, and if you're interested in both list your preference.

Twix Ice Cream Bars is the only true option.

Alobar,

What kind of numbers you think you could put up with ICS?

Man I hate ice cream sandwiches. Not sure I could eat many of either without dying

Buffet challenge sounds great. Hopefully mid June a few of us can go to a good Vegas buffet

Normal box is usually 6.

I'm sure I can easily do three. Four is not out of the question.

Ice cream sandwiches sounds like a horrendous mess.
In for a box.

Drumsticks are so great. Great name too! There's always a lot of chocolate down in the tip too, which is a sweet bonus.

Alobar,

Store brand ice cream sandwiches are ~150 cals, standard box of 6.

I think it'll go like this:

1 box - everyone can do it and it's pretty pleasant, like the 20 nugget level

2 boxes - most anyone with the will to do it can do it but it's tough and sandwich 10 doesn't feel good. Like the 40ish nugget range.

3 boxes - this is very tough, entering sandwich rare air. 60 nugget territory.

4 boxes - this is elite championship contention level. Sandwich 20 is a test of sheer will. This is like 80-100 nugget range performance.

I think I could do > 3 boxes and possibly be in contention in this one.

Pwns,

I love drumsticks, but I think the numbers would be super low on them. Their sweetness gets pretty overly intense very quickly after a few.

Having never eaten more than maybe 2 ice cream sandwiches at once (nor eaten one at all in at least 5 years), my preliminary guess is my limit is somewhere in the 12-15 range.

Mia,

I think 12-15 will be a very respectable middle of the pack number.

Most I've ever eaten is 4 in a sitting.

Someone brought some Target ice cream sandwiches home recently and they were legit. Not cheaped out at all.

NUGGETS was close to an ideal format for me, but I think I could do around 3 boxes of ice cream bars. In for Snickers or regular, prefer Snickers.

Opposite for me. Though I do like ice cream sandwiches.
