What's the most caloric, heart clogging meal you ever ate?

[ChavezSpeakstheTruth]

I just had this crazy ass pastrami sandwich the other day at Kat'z Deli in the Lower East side.



But the worst thing was Bangers and Mash with bacon and cheese.

Oh baby - I felt the years slipping away from my life.

[datasuspect]

1. full english breakfast

[ChavezSpeakstheTruth]

4. ummmm - black pudding!

[Kutjara]

50. I love black pudding.

Breakfast isn't breakfast without it.

Oops, gotta dash. I think my ambulance has arrived.

[Commie Pinko Dirtbag]

19. (Shudder) You mean there are breakfasts even AMERICANS find excessive?

:scared:

[datasuspect]

20. bread fried in bacon grease (one part of the experience)

yummy!

[Arugula Latte]

47. aka "The Full Monty" nt

[YankeyMCC]

2. Either -

Double Whopper with cheese, large fries and strawberry shake - That was in the early 80's when I worked at Burger King.

Either that or a bunch of Pirogies and kielbasa :)

[Giant Robot]

56. Oh you need to add bacon to that!

And dip the fries in mayonaise. Then your talking heart clogging. From one former BK employee to another.

[sakabatou]

3. I had a really big sundae dessert

[ChavezSpeakstheTruth]

5. Oh and I did eat at Wilbur's BBQ in NC once

Whooo boy!

Pulled pork infusion

[Strawman]

6. 1 lb BLT at Tony's (no tomato)

It's this restaurant in MI off I-75 known for gluttonous portions. When I was a kid, I thought it was great. Last time I went in there as an adult, it was just gross.

[sbj405]

54. I've been to Tony's. I remember the basket o' fries.

Ugghhh.

[Mrs. Ted Nancy]

7. My usual monday night meal

Chicken fried steak with white gravy, mashed potatoes with loads of butter, and french fries. Also, a slice of cheese cake for dessert.

I can't believe that this is bad for me. ;-)

[Phillycat]

8. Pasta carbonara

The recipe I use includes:

a full stick of butter
half a package of bacon
a cup of parmigianno cheese
an egg
a pound of pasta
a pint of heavy cream

So yeah, not exactly lite fare. :D

[Strawman]

11. Oh yeah. That's another one I was thinking of

One of my college roommates used to make it regularly. Won't find that one on the "Heart Smart" portion of the menu.

[Phillycat]

12. "I'll take the pasta carbonara, and a side of angioplasty, please?"

"And a diet coke."

[kath]

29. Calvin Trillin had a campaign to make Spaghetti Carbonara the national dish for

Thanksgiving:
http://www.rlrubens.com/Thanksgiving.html

Gooooood stuff, when properly made!

[slj0101]

9. Fries at this place:

http://www.hollyeats.com/OriginalHotDog.htm

[Left Is Write]

10. Couple of things:

Fettucine alfredo

French fries with three kinds of melted cheese and bacon

[youthere]

15. The french fries sound yummy...

but they really need a dollop of sour cream to make them perfect!;-)

[Left Is Write]

16. You know, they may have had sour cream too. I don't remember.

We ordered them at a sports bar/restaurant on our honeymoon. :)

[youthere]

17. LOL!

[youthere]

13. Fried chicken..

with potatoes mashed with a full stick of butter, gravy made from the grease and drippings the chicken was fried in, cucumbers and onions in a creamy mayo and buttermilk dressing, green beans with bacon (and butter of course), hot biscuits dripping with butter and for dessert, cheescake.

I actually ate this four nights ago at my MIL's house. I think I'm still in arterial shock.

[tigereye]

14. several Christmas Eve dinners

with shells filled with ricotta, mozz, eggs, etc, plus my husband's special chicken/red pepper curry dish awash in butter, plus cookies, pie and pumpkin cheesecake.

That was probably the one! :hi:

[LanternWaste]

18. Since I live in TX, there's just so many choices

Since I live in TX, there's just so many choices. I think I'll go w/ the lunch I'd have every Friday back in the nineties at a mom&pop restuarant in the Fort Worth Medical District (can't rmember the name).

Texas-style chicken fried steak w/ white gravy. steak takes up 3/4 of the plate.
Mashed potato(e)s w/ white gravy
Corn bread (again... w/ white gravy)

Mmmmmmm.....


(oh, and iced tea with out sweetener-- 'cause I'm so obviously worried about what I eat).

[kwassa]

21. Most anything I ate in New Orleans had a full stick of butter in each dish

and let us not forget that alltime nutritional paragon, Gravy 'n Biscuits!

[terrya]

22. A corned beef sandwich at the Carnegie Deli in 2001.

It was my first trip to New York and a group of us went to Carnegie Deli for lunch. I did NOT know about their sandwiches.

[KitchenWitch]

23. Crow

Damn but it gave me chest pains.

[BarenakedLady]

24. I'm eating it right now

leftover cheese stuffed crust pizza smothered in Ranch dressing.

Hey, at least I'm eating. :shrug:

[last_texas_dem]

25. Probably a fried chicken potato

A baked potato with large chunks of fried chicken, plus cheese, butter, and cream gravy...

Yeah, maybe I've had something more caloric and heart clogging and didn't know it, but that one seems like the likely champion.

[MonkeyFunk]

26. Spaghetti carbonera

at the local italian joint. Delicious, but deadly.

[Taverner]

27. Two racks of Baby Back Ribs at Stubbs in Austin

Oh god....there is nothing more sublime...

[bearfan454]

35. Stubb's rules for ribs ! nt

[noonwitch]

28. Big Boy's Breakfast Buffet!

Bacon, sausage, eggs, pancakes, waffles, all you can eat!

Every once in a while, I go there to pig out. Every once in a while, I also like to go to Long John Silver's and eat one of their seafood platters, with double hushpuppies (instead of fries). That can't be good for one's heart, either.

[libnnc]

65. Oh God I love LJS...

I'm so ashamed. Fried fish is my weakness. There hasn't been a plate of fish 'n chips anywhere I've passed up yet.

Crack Cocaine. That's what it is. The Brits revenge.

[soleft]

30. not all at one meal - but this put me in the hospital

2 years ago I had macaroni and cheese for lunch and a few hours later I had some of those girl scout cookies that are peanut butter and chocolate. That night I was in the ER with gallbladder pains so bad I could barely breath.

Didn't have gallstones - just a sluggish gallbladder that couldn't handle the triple whammy of cheese, chocolate and peanut butter.

So immediately I went on a low fat diet - lost 33 pounds and haven't had any trouble since. I still really limit peanut butter, maybe 1 teaspoon every couple of months. NEVER want to feel that pain again.

Last Friday tho, I was home sick from work with a cold and eating maybe a little too much for medicinal purposes. Suddenly I realized through out the day I had eaten the deadly trifecta again - cheese, chocolate and peanut butter. This time tho I survived.

[kedrys]

31. Bagna Cauda

There's an explanation: I'd had a bit to smoke, a character in the show I was watching mentioned it, I got curious. :P

One of two instances in which I will tolerate the presence of anchovies.

A close runner-up: a stuffed bread my mom makes which involves WAY too much butter, green onion dip, gobs of mozzarella cheese, and...BACON!!!

[HughBeaumont]

32. Back when I was a young guy,

I used to eat 2-3 whoppers in a sitting. Big Macs, QPs with cheese, etc.

I'd go to buffets and put away 12 plates in a sitting.

Now, my big indulgence is a full rack of ribs about 8 times a year, whether from my grill or Bubba Qs or Damons.

No more fast food, though.

[bearfan454]

33. Fresh Polish Sausage

from Chicago. Darn good, but it will kill you eventually.

[billyskank]

34. Probably the Mr V.'s Special in Leamington Spa

Four quarter-pounder beefburgers in a bun. There are probably places in America where that is considered an appetizer. :D

[jmowreader]

36. Mids Breakfast at Teufelsberg

Teufelsberg was the name of the hill on which Field Station Berlin is located. We had a mess hall. It overlooked a nude beach. This mess hall was staffed with people who believed that if there was only enough grease to run a railroad in the food, it would probably stick to the grill.

When you worked mids at T-berg, those little fuckers made sure you got your minimum daily requirement of grease. The standard mids breakfast consisted of:

omelets with ham, cheese and grease
bacon with grease
sausage with grease
ham with grease
potatoes with grease
pancakes with grease
waffles with grease
grits with grease (no shit--the fucking grits were greasy)
toast with grease
fruit with grease
milk with grease
juice with grease
and a little pot of molten grease at the end of the serving line in case you wanted more

You never gained weight eating mids breakfast. That food slid right down your throat and shot straight out your ass without stopping for anything.

[mduffy31]

37. I ate the Monster Burger from Hardee's once

Now I have had a Lap-Band so there is no way I could every eat that. In fact all fast food makes me ill now.

[Zavulon]

38. Poutine and smoked meat.

Montreal's famous for both.

[Beer Snob-50]

39. Last easter weekend

I ate a couple of sausage sandwiches at a beer fest I went to and then pigged on keilbasa the next day. That night I went to the hospital and had a couple of stents put in to unclog my artiries.

[Bridget Burke]

40. Here's a dish offered at Houston Mexican & Vietnamese restaurants....

* Clean & butterfly some shrimp.

* Insert a piece of cheese & jalapeno (or other chile) in each one.

* Wrap with bacon & fasten with toothpicks.

OK so far? Well, the next step is: Dip in batter & deep fry!

For several years, Men's Fitness Magazine voted Houston "The Country's Fattest City"!

[BikeWriter]

45. Hey, you must have been to La Brisa's in Bacliff!

[schmuls]

41. Blech!!!!! (I don't eat red meat). But I do love to eat as many tortilla

chips dripping with melted cheese and loaded with ass-burning jalapenos!!! And if I want 2 or more plates of it...I go for it!!!!

[eyepaddle]

42. Deep fried patty melt

at the now defuct Shorty's Diner in WInona MN.

Even as I ate it I thought there was no way it tasted good enough to be worth that arterial blockage.

[BlueManDude]

43. A fried fettucini alfredo sandwich with bacon and mayo.

[schmuls]

44. HA HA HA!!!! snicker snicker he he he he snurf snurg

[BlueManDude]

64. don't laugh - I ate his somewhere on the outskirts of bangor.

[BikeWriter]

46. It looks damned good.

[Burma Jones]

48. It involved a half pound of foie gras, heavy cream and lots of pork fat

[Bridget Burke]

68. Doesn't sound Kosher to me n/t

[Nikia]

49. When I was younger, I ate many high calorie meals

Some which were inherently high in calories while others I ate stuff which wasn't quite as bad but large quantities of it.
I used to like eating meat fat when I was a little kid. Now stuff like that freaks me out.
I've eaten most fatty foods in my life, including high calorie foods available at restaurants. I've also eaten multiple days worth of food in one sitting when I binged and restricted while being a competitive runner.

[Kutjara]

51. Deep-fried pizza

Picked one up at a Glasgow chip shop after hearing Scottish friends talk about them. Wish I hadn't. It was years ago and I still have indigestion.

[Pacifist Patriot]

52. A 4-star restaurant in NYC.

We ate and drank for 3 hours. It's amazing we aren't dead. (Or dead broke)

[ChavezSpeakstheTruth]

61. I'd figure the loot would run out before the heart would

:)

[Dukkha]

53. my homemade 1lb cheeseburger

cooked rare so it was pink and swimming in juices. i felt like i ate a manatee after that.

[malta blue]

55. Katz Delicatesssen

Oh how I miss Katz Delicatessen.....

I used to live about 4 blocks from there...

[ChavezSpeakstheTruth]

60. Did you hear 2nd Ave Deli is gone?

:(

[Magrittes Pipe]

57. That sandwich looks awesome. I love pastrami.

Worst for me was probably the time I went to Sal e Carvao, a Brazilian churrascaria in Chicago.

14 kinds of meat, one night. Not light portions, either (okay, I went easy on the chicken). Also ate a mess of cheese. And there were and indeterminate number of caipirinhas; which may not clog the arteries, but they sure do fuck up the liver.

top sirloin
rump
bottom sirloin
tenderloin
leg of lamb
beef ribs
lamb chops
pork ribs
bacon-wrapped filet medallions
pork loin
bacon-wrapped chicken breast
Picanha com Alho, whatever that is
Linguica (best sausages ever)
chicken legs

[WindRavenX]

58. Katz' deli is amazing

jesus christ it is.

[ChavezSpeakstheTruth]

59. You mean - Holy Moses it is!

:)

[long_green]

62. The Frenchuletta at Liuzza's

which has reopened

[Hosnon]

63. Anything involving a Bloomin' Onion. nt.

[Initech]

66. Pfft, that pastrami has nothing on the ones from the Hat (LA):

I've actually downed more than one of these and lived to tell about it.

[NuttyFluffers]

67. hmm, double bacon cheeseburger w/ avocado and a fried egg on top (sunny side up)

i believe they used onion rings instead of regular onion slices. naturally chili cheese fries and a dollop of sour cream as a side and a chocolate shake to wash it down. good going down, then the chest pains set in...

or was it some gargantuan pig out at a Thai & American BBQ place? ruby chicken (1/2 a chicken, lightly battered and deep fried, stuffed with a spiced meat filling inside the cavity), BBQ ribs, green curry, yellow curry, pad thai, chicken strips w/ ranch sauce, and finished up with mango rice, fried banana, and mango ice cream.

or was it a combination platter of chimichangas, flautas, and a taco supreme, with enough rice, beans, cheese, avocado and sour cream to make a sculpture, finished off with a flan and an order of mexican fried ice cream?

or that waffle sandwich breakfast after a childhood sleepover. it was choose your own waffle or pancake, so flavored ones with blueberries or chocolate chips were available, scoop your own ice cream choice, put it on the pancake/waffle, pour your own syrup atop, put another pancake/waffle atop and squish your sandwich down, add more syrup and you're ready to eat! i believe us kids were wired the rest of that morning...

or it could be... nah, i'll stop now, the memories are now making me sick. it sure was tasty then, but i can't eat like that anymore. though i'm still curious what a twinkie, stuffed with a snickers bar, battered and deep fried would taste like. it would probably be even tastier with blueberry syrup and powdered sugar on top. at which point i would lapse into a sugar coma and have to be carted away to a hospital...

[ChavezSpeakstheTruth]

69. All I can say is..

Holy shit!

[WritingIsMyReligion]

70. Poutine, while in Quebec.

Oh my.
