How a fry up measure up? 5 pints and a kebab?
- arethuza 10y agoI hate to think what some of our culinary "specialities" here in Scotland would come out as? Deep fried battered pizza? Deep fried battered white puddings? [NB A white pudding is pretty much a savoury porridge sausage]. Butteries - which are basically 140% fat. (And delicious). I'm now wondering if anyone has tried deep fried battered butteries....

- logfromblammo 10y agoI thought Scots were supposed to drink Irn Bru or whisky with everything.
- pjc50 10y agoI'm fond of a "munchy box", eaten over the course of two days. The buttery is lovely, it's basically an all butter croissant that someone couldn't be bothered to roll up.

- chimprich 10y agoI was interested too. A large breakfast at Wetherspoons ("Two fried eggs, bacon, two sausages, baked beans, three hash browns, mushroom, tomato, two slices of toast") is 1530 calories - probably bigger than your average fry up though. Kebabs are quite variable... 5 pints of ale + a really crappy fatty doner could be over 3000 calories. 5 pints of lager + shish kebab might be just under 1000 calories.
