Oscar's Diner, a restaurant in Shropshire, Britain, have made headlines with their enormous "Titanic" burger, containing a whopping 4,200 calories (and that's before you add the fries and milkshake).
That is an average woman's daily intake for two days... and a dieter's nightmare.
The restaurant came up with the burger as a crowd-drawing challenge,
Hungry customers must eat the entire burger, a large portion of chips, a pot of coleslaw, washing it all down with the ice cream milkshake, within 45 minutes.
The burger costs ?15 (around $23), and is stacked high with:
- two 1lb beef patties
- six rashers of bacon
- two chicken breasts
- two potato waffles
- four onion rings
- cheese and mayo
- tomato and lettuce
So far, around a hundred people have taken on the challenge. Fifteen have succeeded.
Health experts have spoken out against the burger, with dietician Lucy Jones describing it as, "The quickest route into A&E with a heart attack."
Oscar's Diner say, "We're not forcing anyone to eat anything. It's just a bit of fun."
What do you think? Is this a fun marketing gimmick, or a example of dangerous super-sizing?
