Highest calorie meal at Wetherspoon almost hits your full daily intake

If you’re conscious of the amount of calories you’re consuming, you may well be startled to learn of the astronomical calorie count of the highest calorie meal at Wetherspoon, which comes close to hitting your daily intake on its own.

Look, we all know the deal at Spoons: food and drink at, frankly, staggeringly low prices (especially if you happen to live in London and have become accustomed to paying approximately one million pounds for a pint).

Let’s also preface this with a quick refresher on caloric intake.

In general, the NHS recommends that women consume 2,000 calories per day, while the recommended intake for men is 2,500 calories.

Now that we’ve laid the flagstones of perspective, let us get to the main course.

In this case, the Empire State Burger from Spoons, which boasts two hefty beef patties, American-style cheese and maple-cured bacon. In case that’s not enough for you, the burger come with a generous six onion rings and a helping of chips.

All of that clocks in at a head-spinning and stomach-filling 1,949 calories, though a comparatively reasonable £9.55. Make it £10.85 if you want to add an alcoholic drink.

Is it remarkably cheap? Well, yes, considering you can essentially fill your daily caloric intake in one fell swoop.

Is it healthy? Well no, almost certainly not.

Will I one day consume this in a kind of sloth-like torpor in the midst of a 10/10 hangover? Pretty likely.

If, after all those calories, you’re still hungry for more Spoons news, then you’ll doubtless be excited to learn that you can get a pint for 99p throughout November at Wetherspoon venues in England.

Throughout November, customers will be able to enjoy a pint of Ruddle’s Best, Green King IPA, a bottle of Beck’s or a 25ml measure of Bell’s whisky for just 99p in England. In Scotland and Wales the pints will be priced at £1.10 due to unit price restrictions.
