Crust, a restaurant in Solihull of West Midlands, England, has challenged its diners to devour a huge mouthwatering burger in 20 minutes for free. Failure to complete eating the colossal meal within the required period of time would mean a £19.95 bill.

According to the Daily Mirror, the giant burger, named Mr. Big, contains 6,300 calories and stands 12 inches. The mega meal is served with a double serving of fries and a large portion of coleslaw on the side.

Mr. Big is made up of beef burgers possessing 1,400 calories, pulled pork which has 500 calories, and bacon with 600 calories. It also has three slices of cheese with 300 calories and three servings of crispy battered onions having 640 calories, topped off with house burger sauce containing 640 calories, and six brioche buns owning 600 calories.

Crust's representatives said that only 10 percent of the daring diners had successfully completed the promo, which is almost similar to the popular American food reality TV series "Man V. Food". One of challengers, Eliott Rhodes, a 26-year-old burger lover, said finishing the whooping meal was tough because he felt too stuffed.

"I thought I'd have no trouble scoffing it down, but it was a lot harder than I imagined. By the end of it I was absolutely exhausted," Rhodes shared. "The top burger was great, and the crispy onions were an absolute delight - but by the time I got down to the second and third burger it was harder to swallow." Rhodes, however, added that he would recommend it because the towering burger was delicious.

The consumption of a 6,300-calorie burger in 20 minutes would mean taking 315 calories per minute. This is way too much as per UK's National Health Service (NHS) recommendations.

The NHS website stated that in order to maintain a healthy weight, the daily intake of calories from foods and beverages should be tracked. The daily calorie allowance for men is 2,500 while women should stick to a calorie limit of not more than 2,000 per day.
