As options can vary, it’s tough to say which was the all-out winner of the "Xtreme Eating Awards," but Applebee’s Build Your Own Sampler is certainly a contender.
Certain variations can reach nearly 3,400 calories, well in excess of the recommended 2,000 to 2,500 calorie daily cap.
That choose-your-own strategy can yield similarly hefty results for those partaking in Marco’s Meal for Two at Maggiano’s Little Italy.
The Cheesecake Factory’s Fried Chicken &Waffles Benedict served with a side of potatoes is another dish that goes well beyond the intake limitations experts advise, coming in at 2,580 calories.
Uno’s Pizzeria & Grill packs even more into its Whole Hog Burger, with a count of 2,850.
Others hovering near 2,000 calorie mark include Dave & Buster’s Short Rib and Cheesy Mac, Buffalo Wild Wings' Dessert Nachos, Romano's Macaroni Grill's Cremini Pork Shank, and Jersey Mike's Subs' Giant Chipotle Cheese Steak.
The RT 44 Grape Slush with Rainbow Candy at Sonic contains a relatively scant 970 calories, but it is just a drink.
