A monster breakfast which weighs the same as a small child and could potentially kill diners is attracting criticism from angry health campaigners

The Kidz Breakfast at Jesters Diner in Great Yarmouth, Norfolk, includes 12 rashers of bacon, 12 sausages and six eggs and weighs on average 9lb - 1lb 5oz more than the average newborn baby.

Health experts are demanding its removal from the menu and are warning someone with a heart condition could die if they eat it, with each helping amounting to at least 6,000 calories, up to three days' food intake for an average person.

Oh my! I had to look up the restaurant you mentioned. I love food and I love to read menus. Lowrey’s looks incredible. Now I have to see if they’ll deliver to Minnesota. LOL

Our revenge comes in a few decades.

The food police feel tofu diets gives them 2 extra years - in their thirties.

It doesn't.

The 'two years' will be added at the end -- extra time in a nursing home. Have fun food police - remembering all the pizza and beer you did without? They'll have time to think about the pizza and beer, bacon and eggs - - waiting for Nurse Ratched to bring them their meal - of baby food.

Tofu is quite carcinogenic. Its loaded with phytoestrogens that greatly accelerate the growth of tumors; especially breast, lung, and prostate.

“I could die if I choked on a brussel sprout! “

That’s OK so long as it’s a government approved Brussel sprout!!! It might even be a good thing if you’re on Medicare and wasting resources better allocated to the young.

Interesting about gluten issue. Caught just the very end of TV program today with some doctor stating gluten research is totally bogus and pushing for everything in moderation. Wish I had tuned in earlier. Wonder if it will be one of those “eggs were bad for you but now they are good for you” issues.

He must be heeding their advice because this latest season is called MVF Nation, where locals do the challenges while he coaches them.

Yeah, he must be doing that. He would never go about trying to show his fellow Americans that they too can accomplish difficult things.

Definitely not bogus!

One week off of gluten made his joint inflammation disappear completely, and also stopped post nasal drip and sinus congestion. He got cocky and fell off the wagon, and just two days brought it all back.

I have the utmost respect for any man - or woman - who can appreciate and revel in the full delights of what a Nathan's dog on a steamed bun offers to humankind. I raise my mug and tip my horns to you, sir. Or raise my horn and tip my - oh, never mind. You get the idea.

"But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: for men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away, for his name is Obama."

It was "News From the Future", not the past.

Give them time, they're pedaling as fast as they can.
