Just as an utterly trivial and pointless exercise, who can find the UK fast food meal with the most absurd number of calories in it?

My entry is a Burger King Supersized double Whopper with Cheese meal, finished off with a BK Fusions strawberry cheescake, which gives the following:

Burger - 976 calories

Fries - 456 calories

Coke - 378 calories (which would rise to 635 if you're allowed milk shakes with a meal deal?)

Dessert - 341 calories

Giving a grand total of 2,151 calories or, to put it another way, 86% of an adult male's recommended daily intake in a single sitting! hehe

Christ, what happened to him?

I remember listening to the Virgin radio breakfast show the morning after he'd been on Celebrity Lardbuckets or whatever it was called. They'd said what his body fat was (something like 49% or so), which was followed by a load of uncontrolled giggles before the DJ managed to choke out the (true) fact... "that's more than a pork scratching!" hehe

I'm sure to some it's a meal...

I always remember Joey on Friends when he had a bucket of chicken, and he said to the others "I'm going back to my bucket. I'm only eating the skin, so the chicken's up for grabs..." smile

Destroyed 3 double whopper with cheese and bacon meals in a two sittings a few weeks ago. Happy times. Makes up for months of chicken and Rabbit food and 5 days a week at the gym. Coupled with the rest of the crap I ate that day I think we worked out I'd broken 8k cals. Felt like crap later but christ did I enjoy it at the time biggrin

If you went to McDonalds and had a Big Tasty with Bacon, large fries, choc milkshake and a Belgian Brownie it's 2270 calories despite the fact that the Big Tasty is smaller than the double whopper and the fries are only large instead of supersize. Less food, more calories!

was bored so i decided to see how many calls I could get with McDs..

Big Tasty (with bacon) - 890cals
large fries - 460cals
Large banana milkshake - 545cals
Wispa McFlurry - 410cals

Total - 2305kcal. of which, 73g is protein, 108g is fat. and 5.4g of salt.


Also, most of dominos/pizza hut's pizzas are around 300-400cals per slice.

I don't even want to know what the fast food is like in the USA.
8000cals for those burgers at The Heart Attack Grill.
2500cals for Burger King's burger whopper pizza.

From there

Quadruple Bypass Burger-

Ambulances at the ready for the Quadruple Bypass Burger, from the Heart Attack Grill in Chandler, Arizona. Containing 2lbs of beef and an estimated 8,000 calories, it’s not hard to see how the Quadruple Bypass Burger got its name.

Although it looks revolting if any is left in the morning, Parmos are brilliant and definitely a hangover preventative in a box.

A mate of mine has demolished 14 piece kfc buckets with ease. He eats a lot, but he also hits the gym hard to make up for it.

I have only ever had a half parmo, which according to the averages from Wiki would have contained a mere 1400 calories and 75g of fat.

My biggest maccys meal consisted of 3 fillet o fish burgers, 2 large fries, one large coke, 2 portions of ketchup and a crunchie mcflurry. That comes to 2535 calories, 105g of fat and 7.8g of salt.
