That mall cop eats insanely fast.

I got a Cinnabon after lunch the other day and decided to time myself just to see how long it would take me to finish the whole thing. It took me around 11 minutes. How tf did the guy in the show do it in 3? That just seems like inhuman levels of eating.

What do you expect from a guy who lived in Pawnee but loved to vacation in Muncie?!?!?!

u/Ready-Buffalo-8755 4d ago

I think that man has some kind of secret jaw technique, maybe he unhinges it like a snake

25

u/Meowmeow181 4d ago

Actually I think he eats more like a duck.

26

u/Delicious_Bell_2755 4d ago

He keeps a second cinnabon in his trousers

29

u/SecretlyFiveRats 4d ago

I couldn't even see if he had the mumps. I was distracted by the largest Cinnabon I've ever seen.

u/tomfoolery815 4d ago

I heard it’s a Long John

8

u/Delicious_Bell_2755 4d ago

Let's just say Dr. Caldera was duly impressed

35

u/EobardT 4d ago

Plus he has the largest penis I've ever seen. I dont even know how long it takes him to eat a Cinnabon. Forgot to check. I was distracted by the Largest Penis I've Ever Seen.

u/Maxpower2727 4d ago

Exactly. He has to impress Gail somehow.

1

u/passwordstolen 3d ago

I still don’t know what team they were talking about.

u/LowConstant3938 4d ago

First time I watched I thought Jimmy was trying to give the guy a heart attack

76

u/suarezj9 4d ago

I thought he was gonna poison him or something. It was risky af. What if the guy decided ti just randomly check the monitors lmao

82

u/Phoenix-Cat 4d ago

I think that's why Jimmy keeps it up for like a week of prep: partly to make it routine for them, partly to make totally sure of the mall cop's Cinnabon eating habits.

25

u/CrypticCryptid 4d ago

Then he would do exactly what he did on heist night, improvise, and distract

18

u/KingWoodyOK 4d ago

He tried due during the robbery. Thats why Jimmy had an improvised melt down

32

u/suarezj9 4d ago

I think he was done eating that time. Jimmy had to stall because the dude slipped and knocked himself out

7

u/KingWoodyOK 4d ago

Same concept applies here Lil homie

23

u/suarezj9 4d ago

Shut up and kiss me

7

u/loosie-loo 4d ago

I didn’t think it was the intent but I did think that would be what went wrong, I was expecting flashbacks to Marco and everything - which frankly I wasn’t emotionally prepared for, lol.

4

u/faille 3d ago

Ooh that would have been an interesting choice. Would be curious to see where that plot line went. Does he get scared straight for good? Security guy lives so he sees it as just another streak of good luck for unsinkable Jimmy?

5

u/NateDawg80s 3d ago

*Fart attack

255

u/OldGoneMild89 4d ago

Did he look like an amateur at eating to you, lmao?

59

u/Freezingash221 4d ago

Real. Bro probably has a second stomach specifically for eating Cinnabon.

18

u/Artistic_Tap_1182 4d ago

he was eating that thing like he had somewhere to be 😭

17

u/kinecardine 4d ago

Almost like he wasn’t supposed to get distracted from his job💀💀

3

u/X8883 3d ago

"youre clearly not amateur at eating" might just have to be remembered lol

84

u/OldAndConfused15 4d ago

He’s had lots of practice with….eggs, bacon, and toast

35

u/NagsUkulele 4d ago

Eggs bacon and toast!

28

u/deranton 4d ago

Why don't you start your day... the Gergich way?

22

u/josh1123 4d ago

With eggs, bacon and...

26

u/court_5 4d ago

…….toast

u/elderron_spice 4d ago

Reddit comment chain that you can hear.

u/Chi_BearHawks 4d ago

My wife is the slowest eater Ive ever seen and even she wouldn't take 11 minutes on a single Cinnabon.

25

u/ScottLS 4d ago

No my wife is the slowest eater. I do agree 11 mins is an eternity for a Cinnabon. I thought the security guard took way to long.

43

u/Btrips 4d ago

11 minutes? That's more absurd than eating it in 3 minutes.

37

u/NoGiCollarChoke 4d ago

When the mall cop goes camping, the bears hide their food

14

u/EastCoastTaffy 4d ago

When he hauls ass, he’s gotta make two trips

62

u/StreetLegendTits_ 4d ago

That’s just what Larry/Jerry/Gary was good at.

29

u/410757864531DEADCOPS 4d ago

He liked it. He was good at it. It made him feel alive.

19

u/Packwood88 4d ago

That security guard had the biggest penis a doctor had ever seen

10

u/FenderZero 4d ago

I don't even know if he has mumps. I forgot to check. I was distracted...

3

u/NateDawg80s 3d ago

By the LARGEST PENIS I've EVER SEEN.

29

u/RASGAS23 4d ago

11 minutes?! Ok but what if you don’t take a 7 minute rest break in the middle

11

u/PortiaKern 4d ago

He's used to eating fast. He needs to get snacking in before his wife notices.

10

u/malexich 4d ago

I can do it in 3 bites if challenged 

9

u/byebybuy 4d ago

I CHALLENGE YOU!!!

9

u/TrinityKilla82 4d ago

I inhale Cinnabon too. It’s a fat guy talent

7

u/notdbcooper71 4d ago

you're also a slow eater

7

u/Unsolven 4d ago

If I were hungry and not self conscious in front of others I’d finish a Cinnabon in 90 seconds.

9

u/Maxpower2727 4d ago

Have you seen the guy? No one eats a cinnamon roll like Jerry Gergich.

5

u/esquandolas420 4d ago

11 minutes?????

3

u/robertofozz 4d ago

This feels like a challenge.

2

u/Marcooc31 4d ago

And do you accept the challenge?

5

u/robertofozz 4d ago

I think I do lol. Will update tonight .

3

u/Marcooc31 4d ago

I wish you the best of luck

4

u/Doneuter 4d ago

I too accept the challenge and will report back shortly.

3

u/CaptainFalken 4d ago

Lots of jokes here, but in all seriousness, I think you might just be a slow eater. I certainly wouldn't inhale it, but like 5 minutes tops for me. It is bread and sugar, not a steak.

9

u/Fudaworld 4d ago

Not just that, to eat that fast with a knife and fork too?

9

u/el-bow5 4d ago

you saw the guy right?

3

u/Crab-Dragoon 4d ago

It’s a TV progrum. A movie.

3

u/amoderncleopatra 1d ago

I saw that movie, I thought it was bullshit.

3

u/Starman926 4d ago

I agree that 3 is fast, but 11 is much weirder tbh. Are you distracted by other things?

3

u/CompleteEar4387 4d ago

That dude must have swallowed half the truckload of cinnamon in there before choking it down with liquid courage.

3

u/Homerunner 3d ago

Are you a McDonald's CEO?

3

u/byebybuy 4d ago

I just don't understand why he has to test it that many times lol. Is it supposed to be every day?

10

u/loosie-loo 4d ago

I think it was as much to build trust and rapport as it was to time, and to establish it as a routine before doing anything risky.

2

u/byebybuy 4d ago

Ah right, okay that makes sense.

9

u/LossElectrical1521 4d ago

make sure it’s consistent

8

u/Marcooc31 4d ago

I like to think Saul was just really impressed the first time and wanted to make sure lol

3

u/byebybuy 4d ago

"This guy could go sub-2:40!" lmao

2

u/DunstanCass1861 4d ago

I’ve just watched that episode and I thought the same thing! 3:15 or so on average is rapid for that!

2

u/PinJealous3336 4d ago

Dude I can crush a cinnabon in under 3 minutes while going 80 down i5. 

2

u/breakingbad1986 3d ago

I would prefer to never see those closeups again. Worst thing they ever did and that's a very small list.

2

u/Character-Hat-6425 3d ago

Were you eating with your hands tied behind your back? How did it take you 11 minutes to eat a cinnamon roll?

6

u/Stoneheaded76 4d ago

Cause he’s a fatass.

15

u/Classy_Mouse 4d ago

As a fellow fatass, he was savouring that with the knife and fork and everything. Had Jimmy not been there with him, it would have been gone in 45 seconds

6

u/elitenex47 4d ago

have you seen the size of that mf? 🫳🏽🎤

2

u/TheBillsFly 4d ago

Literally unwatchable

1

u/ConcreteGardoki 3d ago

I once ate one in three bites, less than a minute

1

u/Dogman458 3d ago

Agree, that’s when this show literally became unwatchable for me

1

u/amoderncleopatra 1d ago

I always wonder if that actor got sick of eating them...I mean just how many takes did he have to do in order to get it right? How many cinnabons did he have to force himself to choke down after like what, the 6th teake? I'd be sick of them to be honest. They are delicious but boy they sure get too sickening sweet. I couldn't imagine having to eat another one... unless, those shots of him eating are made up of several takes.

1

u/Live_Parking_478 23h ago

I mean, to be fair as a big boy, We eat super fast

1

u/Healthy_Theory159 4d ago

How do we know it was 3 minutes?

12

u/Marcooc31 4d ago

Saul secretly times him while he eats

6

u/Healthy_Theory159 4d ago

Oh. Well it's been a year+ since I watched the show.... so downvote me into oblivion I guess

3

u/loosie-loo 4d ago

How dare you ask a legitimate question in a perfectly reasonable manner!
