Unbuckle those belts. There's a sweet new food competition launching across the SouthCoast and locals have once again been given the enviable task of crowning a winner.

A tough job, we know.

The New Bedford Food Tours and Viva Fall River team is back with their second annual friendly food fight, dubbed the SouthCoast Snackdown. This latest round will determine who bakes the best sweet bread in the region.

This sweet bread battle comes fresh off the success of their Pasteis de Nata Throwdown last February, which pitted Fall River vs. New Bedford in a quest to find the maker of the best Portuguese custard tart.

For their follow-up contest, the focus, based on community feedback, will be on sweet bread.
