The burger laden with two days of calories - and here it is, actual size!
If Big Macs leave you a little peckish or you think Whoppers are for wimps, then prepare to meet – or should that be meat? - your match.
In what must be the biggest burger in the country, this blood-vessel-busting beast towers 11in high and packs in a mind-boggling 4,200 calories.
That is more than twice a woman’s recommended daily intake – more, in fact, than she should eat in two whole days.
Tipping the scales at 2.5lb, the megaburger contains two 1lb beef patties, six rashers of bacon, two chicken breasts, two potato waffles, four onion rings, cheese and – it’s not all bad – a tomato.
And should you fancy a side order after all that, it is accompanied by a huge ice cream milkshake – and chips.
The mighty mouthful has been prepared by Oscar’s Diner, an American-themed burger bar in Telford, Shropshire, which is offering it as part of its ‘Sink the Titanic’ 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.
And the prize? A free meal – if you can face it – a celebratory photograph on the ‘wall of fame’ and a commemorative T-shirt, presumably in extra large.
The restaurant says that of the 100 people to have tried the £15 meal, which takes half an hour to prepare, fewer than 20 have managed every last chip.
But, incredibly, one winner managed to polish off the lot in just seven minutes.
With its huge calorie and fat content, nutritionists have warned the burger is ‘potentially risky’ to health. Experts estimate the meat itself would contain 2,934 calories and 90g of saturated fat.
The recommended daily calorie intake is 2,000 for a woman and 2,500 for men, while the recommended amount of saturated fat is 30g for men and 20g for women.
Snack time: Customer Jade Fletcher, 20, eyes up the feast. But did she manage to finish it...?
Student Curren Gilmore, 25, sampled the burger yesterday after a friend made a bet with him that he couldn’t finish it.
He said: ‘It’s the biggest burger I’ve ever seen and I’m not sure I’m going to manage it, though I’ll give it a good go.’
Oscar’s deputy manager Nikk Lindop, 26, said: ‘There are many that have tried, but not many have succeeded.
‘We’ve had really good feedback about it and lots of people are coming to try it. Most hit a wall after about 20 minutes and we’ve had to fail several people who’ve had just three chips left.’
Asked if critics might say the challenge was encouraging people to eat unhealthily, he said: ‘We’re not forcing anyone to eat anything. It’s just a bit of fun.’
Azmina Govindji, dietitian from the British Dietetic Association, said: ‘Just the meat in the beef burger alone gives you much more than you need in a whole day. The saturated fat is particularly high – three times a man’s daily limit.
‘This is obviously a marketing gimmick, and no one is likely to eat this on a regular basis, but it takes super-sizing to a new and potentially risky level.’
Dietitian Lucy Jones estimated that the burger, with all the trimmings, contained 4,200 calories and 102.9g of saturated fat.
The creator: Chef and inventor of the Titanic, Keith Robinson
She said the entire meal would have 6,685 calories and 165g of saturated fat, with the ice cream milkshake accounting for 1,369 of those calories.
‘I would say that this is the quickest route into A&E with a heart attack,’ she said. ‘There is an onslaught of saturated fat and empty calories and the meal is devoid of nutritional value.’
In 2009, a takeaway in Bristol claimed to have created the biggest burger in Britain. Its ‘Super Scooby’ contained 2,645 calories.
Their picture will also be hung on the wall of honour at the diner attached to the Odeon Cinema in the Shorpshire town.
Its belly-shaking 5,000 calories is thought to deliver more than double the recommended daily calorie intake for an average man.
Squashed between a normal burger bun is two 1lb beef patties, an 8oz chicken breast, six rashers of bacon, two potato waffles, four onion rings, lettuce, onion and pickles.
Since Oscar's started up its offer two weeks ago around 100 have been prepared to take on the challenge - and only 15 had triumphed.
Oscar's owner Tony Kular said: 'We wanted to do something a bit quirky by introducing a food or an eating challenge to the restaurant.
'People have come from all over, from Wales to Birmingham to try it out.
'Not many have succeeded.'

I'll hold my hands up: those Cinna-Stack pancakes, the Ice Cream Pop-Tarts ('effin brilliant idea) and the Cold Stone Creamery Milk Shake have given me a serious case of the munchies! Dang, might also have to do with it being 00:37 (12:37 am) & I can't sleep .....
And I frickin' LOVE deep-fried macaroni & cheese -- heaven on a plate!

Here's a link where you can learn from "The Queen of Southern Comfort Food", Paula Deen, on how to fix fried mac & cheese:

Scottish bar serves up deep-fried BUTTER
20th December 2011
The Fiddler's Elbow is serving the pudding for what is thought to be the first time in Scotland. Called Braveheart Butter Bombs, the pudding is accompanied with an Irn Bru ice cream and coulis. A variation featuring whisky batter instead of Irn Bru will also be offered.
While critics have dubbed deep-fried butter a 'coronary on a plate', the chefs said it should be all right in moderation. Mr Robertson said: 'We thought we'd add a bit of fun to our menu of Scottish dishes and it's really got people talking. Some folk are saying it's a heart attack on a plate and, okay, it's not exactly health food but as long as you're not having it every day it shouldn't be any problem.'
The dessert is made by freezing balls of butter before dipping them in batter soaked with Irn Bru. These are then submerged in bubbling hot oil until browned. Oliver Scott, who runs The Fiddler's Elbow, said: 'It might not be too nutritious but it's definitely delicious. We've been trying it out on volunteers who are loving it. It actually tastes lighter than you'd expect, it's a bit like eating a banana fritter but nicer and obviously a bit naughtier. We hope it will help cheer people up in a time of gloom.
'We know that when things are tough economically people like to treat themselves to a little comfort food and this is the ultimate indulgence - so long as people don't overdo it.'
