Heart Attack Grill Actually Causes Heart Attack

No, this is not a joke. Last weekend a customer of this Las Vegas establishment went into cardiac arrest while consuming a 6,000 calorie Triple Bypass burger that contained 12 slices of bacon. While the waitresses look great in the sexy nurse get up, they were of little help to the suffering patron, and he was rushed to a nearby hospital. While even the Tripple Bypass burger makes the Bic Mac look like a happy meal, Heart Attack Grill has an even bigger burger: the Quadruple Bypass Burger.  This 8,000 calorie ‘clogged artery waiting to happen’ is comprised of four 1/2lb hamburger patties separated by 20 slices of bacon, four slices of cheese, tomato and onion all sandwiched between two buns drizzled in some mayo-ketchup combination. Here at CollegeCandy, we were having trouble grasping the impact of 8,000 calories. I mean, that’s 4 days worth of the recommended daily caloric intake. We put together a nice infographic to help put it into perspective.

    I have no sympathy for the guy that had a heart attack at this place. That is disgusting as it is all empty calories too!

    Shocked at the amount of calories in vodka considering vodka is known to be the least calorie dense alcohol.

    For women that's 5.33 days worth of calories since most adult women are only supposed to have 1500 calories a day.

    The fact that this place even exists and has any customers is disturbing.

    Maybe if you're a small, bedridden woman! A healthy adult woman who does any sort of activity (and I mean hanging out laundry, showering, walking between classes) does need around 2,000 calories to be in energy balance.

    After 21, most women who do not exercise regularly only burn around 1500-1800 a day. Of course it varies per person, but that is the average for a woman who is not overweight.

Tell us what you're thinking...
