The Center for Science in the Public Interest's (CSPI) 2011 Xtreme Eating Awards has revealed the reason behind the obesity factor.

The CSPI stated, “Look at it this way: Some diners may want to put on extra weight, boost their blood pressure, and bump up their LDL (‘bad’) cholesterol. Restaurants are just there to help”.

IHOP Monster Bacon ‘N Beef Cheeseburger consists of two bacon-burger tarts topped with provolone and American cheeses contains 1,250 calories and 42 grams saturated fat.
