    Holy fuck.

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-18490459

    Would any of you ever try this? I love a nice greasy breakfast as much as the next person, but even thinking of trying this is making me feel sick.

    Apparently if you eat it in an hour ye get your money back. I wonder how much it actually costs?

    A reflection of the rise in popularity of super-sizing food, Jester's diner in Great Yarmouth serves a breakfast that includes 8 eggs, 12 rashers of bacon, 12 sausages, potatoes, mushrooms, hash browns, black pudding, beans and 12 slices of bread.

    I can't imagine anyone actually eats that for breakfast
    not more than once...


    love some sausages and rashers and eggs now though :cool:

    What does it cost?
    It can set you back nearly a tenner for a bog standard brekkie these days!

    Is it wrong that on a good day I'd more than likely finish that?

    Any food challenges round Limerick?

    Yes!
    I reckon I'd be sick for a week if I attempted that!

    I was in a cafe in Cavan town a few years back and they have a breakfast of 10 rashers, 10 sausages, 10 eggs, 5 black pudding, 5 white pudding, hash browns, mushrooms, beans, chips and 10 slices of toast. It was €20 or free if you finished it in an hour.

    Dunno where your buying breakfast but you're getting ripped off. I think I remember seeing somewhere it was £15 (About 19E), could be wrong though.

    Is it wrong that I feel really hungry now?

    Used to be a challenge in Papa Gino's that if you finished the X-large pizza you got it for free. Mate of mine who had a stomach like a cement mixer tried and failed. Man v Food, 0-1.

    I can feel my arteries clogging up just looking at that. Yuck.

    Only people that I think could manage it are people with really low leptin levels as they'd feel a constant hunger.

    Same here. The rest I'd take a good stab at (or at least try), but the idea of a bucket of tea or coffee (which I both hate) makes me wretch.

    Ah now, don't be so hard on yourself!

    Tea would be fine, but you can keep the bread, potatoes, pudding and beans


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,159 ✭✭✭✭phasers


    Where's the challenge? I could eat that right now!


    The one in Cork sounds gorgeous actually. Road trip!

    I reckon I'd be able to do that easily enough, if it weren't for the amount of eggs. You'd fly through ten Rashers and Sausages in two minutes. You'd need to leave the toast til the end though, as that'd fill you.

    Couldn't handle ten eggs though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,533 ✭✭✭Jester252


    Can you go into the bathroom and throw up during it?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,949 ✭✭✭✭IvyTheTerrible


    I'd have trouble eating that in a WEEK!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,507 ✭✭✭✭castletownman


    I reckon if I hadn't eaten for say twelve hours I'd do it no problem.

    In fact. Challenge accepted.

    I havent had a breakfast in there since my college days but it was fairlyu good grub back then.

    I'm not sure if I'd manage it as theres a lot of stuff I dont eat on it, also I dont drink tea or coffee so I'm screwed right there.



    * awaits backlash for not drinking tea or coffee

    You'd have to eat the eggs first. Cold eggs are horrible.

    Now I feel like I have to give you abuse :(

    Oh gavredking, you idiot.

    Now I like Man v. Food, but I could never do it myself. My stomach is far too temperamental.

    The eggs are probably the only thing I actually would eat. But 10 fried eggs? *shudders*

    I drank tea when I was younger, ddint like it, had coffee a few years ago, same thing.

    I just dont like hot drinks, the idea of drinking hot liquid doesnt agree with me. I dont like hot chocolate either. for what its worth.

    I thought you were going to say poached.

    I'm crap at poaching eggs.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,906 ✭✭✭✭PhlegmyMoses


    Bit weird trying to say that a breakfast challenge is indicative of the greed and gluttony of modern day society. Nobody actually eats stuff like that on a regular basis. It's done for a laugh. He'd have been better off looking at the price of good food relative to quick and easy comfort food. That's why everyone is getting fatter.

    I make the BEST poached eggs. Actually the best. Ever. And yes, that's how I like my eggs :D

    I'm gonna have that poxy song in my head all day now. Wonderful. And I only know about 4 lines :(

    Yeah, the hard boiled egg cafe.

    Only finished by one man.....he ain't no man.....horse....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,473 ✭✭✭✭Super-Rush


    I was watching No County for Old Men a few weeks back and they tried a breakfast in Preston i think that had the usual ten of everything. Only catch was you couldn't drink anything with it.

    Theres a place in Longford that has a truckers special. 3 rashers, 3 eggs, 3 sausages, a pork chop, steak, liver, mushrooms, chips, tomatoes, beans and toast. I saw two people try it. One failed miserably and the other didn't eat for nealy a week after.

    Thats the one. Can never think of its name.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,775 ✭✭✭✭kfallon


    Do the people who finish these 'breakfasts' actually get a sense of achievement from this? :confused:


  • Registered Users Posts: 29 rocketchick


    is it actually physically possible to eat more than 10 eggs??
    I remember an episode of Jackass where the guy(cant remember which one) had a challenge to eat a bucket of hard boiled eggs at around 13 eggs or so he start throwing up..he would try to eat another and then chucked again..
    i think they were testing how many eggs its physically possible to eat.. answer not that many ;)

    They still do it. Some challenge. For me it be the bread... 10 slices would be a killer.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,971 ✭✭✭Holsten


    I love food challenges, completed a few myself, but a fry up type food challenge... no thanks.

    I'd rather eat a couple of large pizzas than that. Ugh.

    Me too, because it'd go cold way before the end. Rank.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,659 ✭✭✭CrazyRabbit


    I wouldn't eat that much for breakfast in a week.

    But then again, I frequently skip breakfast & just have lunch at around 1pm.
