£10 Big Breakfast Challenge

O.P.H

I know its not really fitness related but people here eat big and this is about as big as you get

I'm in my mid twenties, bout 6 foot, 180 pounds, slim, but if I did'nt have to eat the toast I reckon I could do this with a days fasting before hand. The toast is just too much :eek:

Yeah the toast looks a bit much alright.

With no drink to wash it all down is a big problem too.

Only for the black pudding that would be handy, I rarely have a drink with my food anyway. TBH even at 10 quid it's not particularly dear.

rubadub

Yeah the toast is a no-no. Was in a hotel at the weekend making a mockery of the self-service breakfast :pac:;)

Still nowhere near that though, maybe half of that but no toast.

£10 is a great price.

I could do it. But you would feel like crap for days so weighing up the risk vs reward not sure if i would bother.

Edit. Replace 5 slices of toast with 5 burgers and white pudding it would look a lot more appetising.

Just noticed the tomato as well, I'm fairly allergic to them. Toast is grand once it's white bread.

I'd need about 6 showers during the day after it as well, with the meat sweats and the serious amounts of salt.

I reckon i could do it!

i once had 3 feet of subway, drunk in cork airport! good times!!:rolleyes:

I suppose he has to do the toast thing to make it a really hard challenge, lookin at those pictures again one a lads ate it all but the pudd and toast. If someone does it the attraction is totally gone.

I can confidently say I would put this away no problem.

If there's one challenge I think I could be competitive at here its eating big.

Also fasting before hand is a terrible idea as your stomach shrinks slightly and cant take the volume. What you need to do is drink a ton of liquids to inflate the stomach and then when that is run through you its clobbering time.

I don't think I could eat the whole rasher though as the fat on them is horrible and it would make me gag to have to eat it. I could put them in the toast though and just get through it.

gluttony at its best!! :rolleyes:

That last bit is fact. If I eat after a good while without then I've no chance of putting it away. A wee sandwich half an hour beforehand and there's no stopping me.

If anyone on here is ever up for a Burger King burger-eating contest give me a shout. :pac:

Fasting is bad news. You would be stuffed after 2 mins after fasting, by the time you could put away another bite time is passed. Something high GI a bit before hand.

Make the sausages cold and the rashers crispy. Rasher fat is delightful, almost as much as chop fat

Depends how the sausages were cooked. Nothing worse than cold sausages with congealed fat all over them.

They had eating contests on eurosport a while back, seriously, it was treated like a sport. The winners were actually tiny, one was this small Asian girl who ate a disgraceful amount. I think it was on discovery they had a program showing contest easters, their stomachs were acting differently, and they show it on scanning equipment, I think a lot passed through undigested so they could eat huge amounts and not get fat from it.

They also had huge fat lads in the contests but about half were normal sized or smaller than average.

EDIT: it was the "glutton bowl" :pac:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Competitive_eating#Famous_competitive_eaters

The Glutton Bowl was a two-hour Fox Network eating special in 2002 sanctioned by the IFOCE.
The 2002 program, "Gut Busters," on the Discovery Channel, followed several competitive eaters' roads to the Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contest as well as explained some of the scientific aspects of competitive eating

Natsuko "Gal" Sone, weighing only 95 lbs. (43 kg), has recently demonstrated prodigious feats of eating in Japan, where she is a popular television personality, and a singer in the band Gyaruru.

Cool, wouldn't mind seeing that

Speed is also a factor in eating big, well for a normal person anyway, as other wise the old Ventromedial nucleus tells you that you're full (I think). I reckon my one is broken or something

floggg

I reckon thats a great value meal for 4 at only 2.50 each.

personally, i never want to even try and find out if i could eat even close to that. Imagine the toilet breaks!

MagicMarker

pfft, that could maybe be my snack between breakfast and lunch.... maybe.

If I could replace the eggs with something else, maybe 10 more sausages, I'd say I could do it. It's just I really really hate eggs! Don't so much mind the yellow part but the white part I despise. I reckon I could get through the toast as well. Can't imagine i'd be able to do anything constructive for the rest of the day after getting through all of that!!

I imagine id be feeling very constructive after it! in fact i reckon id need planning permission for what what become of that kinda feed!

cardio,shoot me

eggs and toast would be no bother so would the beans, but having not eaten meat in 2 years id probably vomit at the first bite.

Ah there's no real meat is sausages anyway and black pudding is all blood so its only the rashers you'd have to worry about really.

cardio,shoot me

somehow i doubt it.

brianthebard

Its the mushrooms that get me. Tbh though at that price I'd just pay for the thing without the mushrooms and with a pint of milk and enjoy it instead of trying to horse through it. Whatever you don't eat you could wrap in toast and eat later!

well horse

Would get through the tomatoes, mushrooms, black pudding, 6 slices of toast and probably half the sausages before having to bail out!

£10 is an unreal price for that plate of food in the picture. If I could have the stuff listed above and a cup of tea for £5 I would be a very happy man!

Dont like eggs, baked beans or rashers unfortunately

ragg

after a few weeks of hard training and strict diet - that would be the daddy of all cheat meals :eek:
