eddie rockets double take

MyPeopleDrankTheSoup

Any guesses on how many calories and the breakdown of this lovely burger? I'm guessing around 500-600??

I would guess quite a bit more.

A quick google told me that a Burger King Double Whopper hamburger has 920 cals..... and that's before the fries and milkshake :P Eddies' is probably similar.

Well the mc donalds Big tasty with bacon is 995kcal, 63g fat, 25g sat fat. 20.5 WW points.

That double take is 2x1/3lb burgers. so 300g of mince alone. I think you might be looking at 1000kcal or more. Their site has an nutritional info section, yet to be updated.

You sure its 300g? Then the 3 buns, ketchup/mayonnaise based sauce and a bit of tomatos and onion... ah, another food to have on cheat day.

The menu says they use 1/3lb of beef in each pattie, so 0.6666 of 454g, so 300g. However in "rip off ireldand" lads are complaining about tiny burgers!

They do low carb dishes now I see, no buns. I would stick with the chicken fillet burgers myself.

They havn't updated their website but I called up their head office and they said it will be done in a few weeks. They are quite helpful if you just call up and ask for the information. I always get the chicken fillet burger and with the information they provided it worked out at 8 weightwatchers points. Cant remember the calories and fat though!

Hope that helps!

That was exactly what i was guessing the Chicken Fillet Burger as. Well happy I was around right :-)
