If you've ever wondered what four days' worth of fat content in one meal looks like, you finally have your answer.
The Center for Science in the Public Interest has put together a list of the most unhealthy meals in America, known as the "Xtreme Eating" list. These highly calorific, artery-clogging meals make a KFC family bucket look like child's play.
The list is collated by nutrition experts who reviewed menus at 200 restaurant chains in the United States to find the meals heaviest in calories, saturated fat, sodium, and sugar.
According to the Food and Drug Administration, the daily recommended intake is 2,000 calories, 20 grams of saturated fat, 2,300 milligrams of sodium, and 50 grams of added sugar.
Unfortunately for the chains on this list, chain restaurants nationwide are now required to list calories on all menus and menu boards.
