TMJ4's Susan Kim isn't just a news anchor, she's also a competitive eater!

Thursday morning, she took part in the Wisconsin State Fair Celebrity Cream Puff Eating Contest.

Cream Puffs are a staple of the Wisconsin State Fair and this year marks 100 years of the traditional treat. But, all that cream inside makes the snack notoriously messy to eat — which of course makes for an entertaining eating contest!

Susan says her husband even helped her come up with a strategy of attack. Check it out:

Despite the expert coaching, Susan didn't quite win the gold — that honor went to Diana Guttierez.

Susan says she couldn't breath around all the cream, which slowed her down.
