After last year's first ever Veggie Hot Dog Eating Contest, the kids at I Love Mike Litt are ready with a vengeance to take their event to the next level Saturday from 1-4p.m. at Scholz Garden (with the chomp-happy contest taking place at 2p.m.)

This year, the all-ages event will showcase some might piggy eaters who will be chowing down on veggie dogs grilled by The Hot Dog King, along with vegan ice cream, prizes and a vegetarian radio DJ - Deb O'Keefe from Rock 101X who will emcee the event along with Chris Trew from Coldtowne Theatre. Entry is $5 and comes with a ticket redeemable for 1 free veggie dog for those not competing.

Returning single category champion Colin "The Tim Duncan of Eating" Kalmbacher will be taking on competitors. Look out.
