CPI’s Malayalam mouthpiece Desabhimani takes hot dogs a tad too literally.
We all know the Communist Party of India loses reason when they hear ‘America’, but this one takes the red cake. The party’s Malay-alam mouthpiece Desabhimani has come out with a front page item saying a US citizen had created a world record by gobbling 68 dogs in ten minutes. Even hardcore party loyalists found this hard to stomach. When the original news item was traced, it spoke of a person who had eaten 68 hot dogs in ten minutes.
