If you’re not careful, however, there is a chance that you could find yourself eating a full day’s serving (or more) of calories in a single meal. Using nutrition data from ESHA, HealthGrove found the most caloric burger at 20 popular chain restaurants.
HealthGrove ranked the list by number of calories for a serving size of one burger, and broke ties by selecting the burger with more grams of fat.
Next time you’re craving fast food, avoid these burgers so you can satisfy your need for beef without adding significantly to your waistline.

Arby’s Turkey Bacon Ranch for me please!
How old are you?
Just curious
Male I assume right?
Lol...you would be amazed at how often that happens. I’ve never worked in fast food, but even in fine dining, people “balance” out the rich meal that way.
Every once in a while, I will devour a Double-Double at In&Out, even though I can’t stand the taste of white bread.
Don’t care about the calories.
Same with the 10 piece nuggets at McD’s...
Yikes-—heart-attack heaven.
With 40 people it’s still 4 3/4 pounds of meat per person, plus the bun and condiments. We used to watch MvF but the gluttony became rather off putting over time. He’s a funny, likable guy, hope he loves doing the show because it could be shortening his life.
According to Wikipedia:
No exact reason was given as to why Richman retired, other than moving on and wishing his audience farewell. Explaining the show's re-tooling to become "Man V. Food Nation", Scripps Networks chairman Ken Lowe cited concerns over ensuring Adam Richman's health if the show had continued in its previous format. Richman had since turned vegan, and reportedly lost about 60 pounds.
One of the Reuben ingredients-sauerkraut-is one of the few incarnations of cabbage I don’t like-the other one is-gag!-kimchee, which MrT5 learned to love while in the military-I would leave the kitchen if he even opened a jar of the stuff. I prefer raw cabbage, but steamed or in caldo de res is okay, too-there are very few veggies I don’t like either raw or cooked...
The vinegar I guess is what gets to you. Or maybe it’s the remnants of the sulfur in the cabbage?
One cooked vegetable the gets to me is spinach. I love raw spinach, but the texture of it cooked is just...too...yucky. Blech!
Unfortunately the nearest Roy Rogers is 20+ miles away, the Arby’s is about 5 miles away.
So glad he gave up all the food challenges. IMO vegan isn’t the wisest choice, but it’s better than restaurant food.
I started working in food service at age 16 and am back in that world after a 20 break. Even in locally owned fine dining establishments it’s extremely hard to find healthy options. My requests embarrass my husband on the rare occasions we eat out, but I have a pretty good idea of what’s in the kitchen-corn syrup and trans fats all around.
My lunches are planned out for the next two weeks...
If only I was only 20 miles away from one. More like 1,100 miles now. Loved everything on their menu, including the double-r-bar burger which I didn’t try until they had almost gone out of business, before they were bought and re-introduced.
I like vinegar-I love just about anything else pickled and vinegar is the main ingredient in my favorite salad dressing-it is the smell of kimchee that gags me-it reminds me of rotten eggs-I don’t like that other rotten-smelling oriental “delicacy”-fish sauce-either. But I’m not put off by strong-smelling/tasting cheese-I’ve mostly lived in the country/on a ranch, where people do eat some stuff that isn’t on the menu in a city...
I grow spinach, and mostly eat it raw in salad. If I do cook it, I steam it just until it wilts-spinach cooked too long makes it icky and takes out a lot of the vitamin, too...
Other lacto-fermented vegetables include cucumber, beets, onions, and garlic (cucumber of course, become pickles). Those vegetalbes don't have the sulfur content that is found in cabbage.
