It was a first for the Wisconsin State Fair and it featured the state's squeaky cheese curds. Competitive eater Darron Breeden won the Cheese Curd Eating Championship. See more photos at https://t.co/2sTQRzbrya pic.twitter.com/p6ongCnDfZ

The cheese curds weren't fried!

Eating them fresh and squeaky is more difficult than tossing down fried cheese nuggets.

Congratulations, Darron!
