The Gourmet Race is a glutton based race where participants race through the track eating as much food as possible.
The goal is to eat the food with the most points, and gain the most points, while also reaching the finish line first!
Run, jump, slide, just keep eating and don't stop!
Similar to an eating competition but instead of just eating you must make it into a race as well.
The first race was made by King Dedede to challenge Kirby to a fight to test which of them was the most gluttonous, with the ever consuming puffball coming out on top.
Gourmet Races are usually spur of the moment, but you'll know when they're occurring, with news spreading fast on Popstar.
If one happens to occur durring your trip, you should attend! It's quite the entertaining event.
Although if you want to travel to see one, you're most likely to durring the summer months, albeit the cooler ones.

As one can see, it's quite the entertaining experience, once one wins all 3 races they're declared the winner of the entire event
Of course Maxim Tomatoes earn the most points, and other foods are less of an importance. The main goal is the number of food, but with certain foods you'll gain a bigger lead on your opponent!
