So, we’ve been over the Spanglish sandwich, rumored at about 1,200 calories, and we've seen Burger King's Meat'normous breakfast offering with 47 grams of fat. But some of you might also be familiar with a certain ambitious young Brit named James, who, for no apparent reason, decided to create “The 8500 Calorie Manwich” last year. In that sandwich were burger patties, sausage, chicken breasts, double Gloucester cheese and even an enchilada. Impressive, no?
Well, leave it to an American to not only recognize the ambition needed to construct and eat such a thing but also to feel the need to out-do it. That’s right, a young man named Derian saw James’ sandwich as a challenge and, realizing that “(James) didn’t even fry anything,” sought out to best him. Derian claims that his sandwich (pictured above), which includes bacon, fried mushrooms, a pair of corn dogs, half a dozen lunchmeats and far too many other ingredients to list here, racks up about 30,000 calories. He does figure in all of the butter and canola oil used to fry the ingredients, but it’s unclear just how much of that fat actually made it into the sandwich.
What is clear, is that this is completely ridiculous. Can we say Dagwood Day on Slashfood?
