It is no wonder America has some of the highest obesity rates in the world. Caterers at a sportsground have unveiled an artery-busting burger that packs in 4,800 calories - more than twice the recommended daily amount.
Given the current recession, I think the "inventors" of it might find that far fewer people buy it as a "challenge" than they're banking on - if so, it serves them right. We all have to take responsibility for what we eat but there really is no decent reason to sell something like this.
"At home, people eat healthy. When they come to a game, they might eat a hot dog."
I like this paragraph at the end, yes they might eat A hot dog, but they don't generally stuff down enough food to feed two people for an entire day in one sitting!
Quote:The Fifth Third baseball park in Michigan, home to the West Michigan Whitecaps, is daring fans to attempt to finish the burger, promising a free t-shirt to anyone who succeeds
My t-shirt reads 'I ate a 4800 cal burger and all I got was this lousy t-shirt' :giggle:
