    "A CAFE hopes to enter the Guinness Book of Records for the biggest fat-laden, cholesterol-packed full Irish breakfast in the world.
    Nutritionists have already raised their eyebrows at 'breakfast roll man', now there's a 7lbs dish that has been dubbed a "heart attack on a plate".
    On the menu at the Hard Boiled Egg Cafe in Cavan town is a dish to be devoured with delight.
    The breakfast conjured up for the world record attempt includes: 10 sausages, 10 rashers, 10 eggs, five puddings, five hash browns, chips, tomatoes, beans, mushrooms, 10 slices of toast and a pot of tea to wash it all down. "If anyone finishes it within 30 minutes they'll get it for free," said John Gaughan, who runs the cafe with his wife Elizabeth.
    They are attempting to break the current record for the biggest breakfast in the world, which has weighed in at a staggering 6lbs 6 ounces in Bristol, England."

    Beans in a fry is an affront to God himself.

    It came about following a request by their 11-year-old daughter Aoife to do something which makes them "famous". They installed the 7lb dish priced at €19.95 on their menu last Monday. Our picture shows Finian McCarthy attempting the dish.

    Hope lil Aoife will be happy once the first person dies of heart failure.

    The story is basically "Man who sells fried food sells a lot of fried food." And this is considered news?

    Actually come to think of it you're right.

    Can't really see anyone being able to finish that amount of food, the stomach can only hold 1.5 litres and 7lbs is just over 3kg.

    It'd be worth visiting just to laugh at the retards trying to finish the food


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 553 ✭✭✭Futurism


    Looks lovely to be honest. Could you not just sit there the whole day and pick away at it?

    So are mushrooms imo.

    I'd love to know where your shopping. Considering their buying from a cash'n'carry the raw materials for one breakfast will come to about a fiver.

    Also, most people will not finish it, and considering its in cavan, I would not put it past them to wash the tomato sauce off the remaining sausages, rashers and hash browns, and send them back out to customers for round two.
