A 30,000 Calorie Burger

John Clarkson laughs in the face of healthy eating - or at least, his creation of a 30,000-calorie burger standing at 5ft 4in would suggest he does.

John has created ‘the Pie-scraper’, comprising ten three-quarter-pound burgers, and 11-and-a-half pounds of beef encasing other food including spaghetti bolognese, a bacon roll and spam.

That’s a whopping 8.5kg of beef, and a likely trip to A&E if any individual attempted to eat it themselves.

The Preston-based cook is claiming a world record, after he and wife Corinne spent 90 minutes assembling the artery-blocking feast.

Mrs Clarkson was happy to endorse the monster burger, adding: ‘It’s a bit of fun. And it’s not just the gimmick, I can honestly say the pizza burger is delicious.”

The Clarksons previously hit the headlines after creating, frying and battering a giant Ferrero Rocher.

Thankfully though, the burger comes with a side of lettuce.
