Three men who have attempted to munch their way through the world's biggest burger have failed.

A Scottish restaurant cooked up the feast, containing 7lbs of meat and a whopping 7,000 calories, throwing down the gauntlet to anyone brave enough to take on the challenge.


So far, the three individual attempts to eat the mammoth meal in under three hours have fallen short.

One contender even failed to polish off the burger despite being helped by five pals.

Craig Johnson, 43, manager of the Baloo Burger Company on Glasgow's Queen Street, said: "A few of the regulars have taken up the challenge, but I'm pleased to say they haven't been able to do it."

He added: "It's huge - an absolutely massive amount of food."

As a prize for managing the almighty meat patty in a sesame bun - which has to be ordered 24hours in advance - the person that beats the challenge will get the £65 cost of the burger wiped off their bill.

The winner will also get a certificate and their picture on the restaurant wall

O... M... G!!!!

Actually, I think I know one person who could finish a meal like that. He was asked to leave an 'All You Can Eat' restaurant once for eating too much! :blink: :bigeyes: :wow: :hihi: Incredibly he isn't a very large man but I've never seen anyone eat as much as he can... ever!
