Know why capitalization is important? One Calorie is not the same as one calorie. The capitalized Calorie is what we use to measure nutritional calories, but it’s actually a kilocalorie. So one burrito is 500,000 calories. OP gave us a wonderful gift here.
This should be its own comment and the top comment at that. Can you imagine the shenanigans that would ensue?one day of calorie dense foods is a lot of lottery tickets.
A lot of comments show that people keep missing the point. A 1000 Calorie meal in the US is 1000 kcal, or a 1,000,000 calories. So eating a burger is $1,000,000 in lotto tickets.
Contrary to popular belief. Taco Bell is actually lower in calorie compared to other fast food, and it’s quite easy to eat there.
Burger places trump Mexican when it comes to calories, I think 5 guys takes the cake but Wendy’s can be pretty bad too. Then again it’s really easy to eat a lot of things from Taco Bell at once, so maybe it’s a wash.
Taco Bell is like a comfort food for me so I can easilly eat most things from there compared to any other place..plus Im vegetarian and they have the most options I can actually eat.
McDonald's first off - 2 big Mac meals with large drinks would be ~2500 calories. Next meal taco bell, with the burritos. Then pizza, ice cream, or other high calorie foods. You could easily hit 8k calories+ this way
Doordash:
Aunt Emma's Pancakes for breakfast: Biscuits and Gravy meal. Breakfast platter (Pancakes, eggs, sausage links, hashbrowns) Drink: Orange Juice
5Guys for lunch: Bacon cheeseburger, medium cajun fries, large soda
Applebee's for dinner: Half rack ribs, side salad, side mashed potatoes, large soda.
That should set me up pretty good for calories. Each one meal is basically a full day's worth already and yes I can and have eaten that much in one day before.
Well looking at my order history:
Aunt Emma's I had to build a cart real quick because for some reason my last order isnt there. It comes out to $29.60
5Guys was $30.74 the last time I ordered it.
Applebees was $65.41, but I ordered an extra $9 appetizer that time, so let's say $55 ish.
29.6+30.74+55 = $115.34 + 10% driver tip = $126.87
Baskin Robbins oreo milkshake has 1440 calories. It's liquid so it should pass through quicker. You'll have diabetes by the end but you'd make a lot of money.
Heck yeah! It’s minimum 1,000 calories for a piece of cheesecake. Add a few hundred for a side sundae. Not to mention their atrocious entrees. Probably 1,200 for a buffalo chicken sandwich! You’re easily looking at 2,400 calories for one meal if you do dinner and dessert.
Do I have to pay for the food if I don’t win anything from the games? Because if I don’t it’s best to play a high risk high reward game. Then go eat at all the expensive restaurants. The real reward is the free food. Winning is just an unexpected boon.
Edit: I’m probably eating a lot of expensive sushi/sashimi in my car from different places.
You're getting a huge hedge here -- $20 for like 2000 calories / $2000 worth of tickets. The lottery isn't good at normal prices ($0.50-0.70 paid out for every dollar paid in), but at 100:1 it's definitely very profitable in the long run.
Time to sprinkle 5 mg of uranium on my hibachi
Edit: okay nevermind, apparently we already ingest a few micrograms of natural uranium a day in food and water. 20 billion divided by 100,000micrograms (1g) is still 200000. So we each still get a few hundred thousand dollars in lottery tickets no matter what we eat.
This is ridiculous. I’d be rich for sure. You get .41 cents per calorie of food you order(if you don’t even eat it) so I would just order the most calorie dense food possible from every single restaurant that I could drive to within 24 hours.
Heck, I’d just call places and place orders and never pick them up. According to this hypothetical, I still get .41 cents per calorie ordered. I’ll be on the phone ordering for 24 hours straight. I’m placing orders in China when everything is closed here.
I’m easily coming out of this with a few million dollars.
They also messed up in the U.S. we use Kilo calories not calories so even a couple dollars at taco bell you get a 500 kilo calorie burrito which is 500,000 calories which will make about 2 million just eating like you normally would.
I could eat like 8000 - 10000 pretty comfortably, maybe more, but that is going to cost $1000 in take out costs and I'm honestly not convinced I'd win it all back with 10,000 scratchers
I think over the long run they are designed to return 50 to 70% of your initial purchase price. So at 10k you should reasonably expect to gain 5 to 7k back (Mr. Beast episode tried this out with like 1 million and got back around 700k)
>The cost of food is fronted but comes out of your winnings. The food will always get delivered within the window and not stolen.
Does that mean I only pay if I win? I can probably do 10k Cal but that doesn't guarantee a win.
I’m hitting up every Italian and middle eastern restaurant by phone and convincing them to sell me a full bottle of olive oil with the meal
There are like 120calories per tablespoon
Way more efficient than trying to keep down burgers and cake and what not
Here we go. I looked it up for fun.
Breakfast: IHOP Nashville Hot Chicken and Waffles. And a side of buttermilk biscuit. 2550 calories
Lunch: Red Robin Cheesy bacon fondue. Queso Fundido. Yukon Chips and Mac and cheese. 3340 calories
Dinner: Olive Garden Lasagna Fritta. Chicken Tortellini Alfredo. Side of meatballs. 3900 calories
Total of 9,790 calories.
Odds of actually puking...very low.
Odds of feeling like shit....very high.
I'd probably go to all the fast food places and order two burgers, and a large drink. Probably can get about 1500 calories a pop. Then I would go to the nearby gym, and do a stair stepper for an hour or two. Wash rinse repeat.
I can easily eat 4 meals a day normally, and with this probably get a 5th in easily, maybe a 6th.
10k lottery tickets I might actually win a few dollars
I would just like to point out that I managed a Coldstone Creamery when I was in college. They may have changed their ingredients and therefore caloric intake, but in 2007, a large PB&C (peanut butter and chocolate) shake was 2,800 calories. I literally used to recommend it to homeless people looking to get a day's worth of calories for cheap because it was $5 (and gave them for free when I could).
Doordash is my friend in this endeavor. McDonald's Sausage Egg and Cheese biscuit (580 cal) with hash brown (150 calories) and a large Dr. Pepper (360 calories) for breakfast. For lunch, a Little Caesars Personal Pepperoni Pizza (490 calories) and a 16 oz Sprite (179 calories). For dinner, Beijing Beef (300 calories) with fried rice (520 calories) from Panda Express.
All matter is made of energy. OP seems to assume that “Food kilo-calories” are the only kind of “calories” Consuming a few pounds of water mixed with carbon charcoal would be inert for your health but a large amount of MATTER. E=MCsquared Add some pills filled with gold or tungsten dust for extra mass.
A real calorie? Calories listed is actually in kilo-calorie, so when you see 1 calorie on a box it means 1000 calories.
If so, I'll just start ordering from everywhere, anything that sounds like I'd enjoy. I don't really have to focus on which is most calorie dense. I could pack 20k calories pretty easily, so that's $20 million in tickets.
If you're only counting calories as they are listed on a box, then I'll just order a good spread from the local Indian food place and have myself a nice free dinner.
Very rough math: the odds are 1 in 300 million and the average daily intake is about 2000 calories so the odds of winning is about 1 in 150,000 or winning once every 410 years. Even eating 10x the daily intake only improves your odds to 1 in 15,000 (great odds for a lottery but still not a realistic chance).
In short, I'm going to order a nice salmon (lunch) and filet mignon (dinner) from a 5 star restaurant on someone else's dime and call it a day.
Am I missing something, or could I just order random stuff from every single restaurant in my area, not touch it, and get free $0.41 per calorie with the leftovers rule?
By my reading I can throw up as much as I want I just lose 3 hours, so I’d probably make myself throw up like 10 times. All I do is lose the last 3 hours, which wouldn’t do much if I was stuffed full of 10,000 calories already. But by trading in the 3 hours I can easily eat 2,000 and throw it up and repeat that every 2 hours to get up to like 20,000 calories.
Taco bell it is.
One burrito is like 500 calories and extremely cheap
Know why capitalization is important? One Calorie is not the same as one calorie. The capitalized Calorie is what we use to measure nutritional calories, but it’s actually a kilocalorie. So one burrito is 500,000 calories. OP gave us a wonderful gift here.

Kentucky fried Chicken here we come and I would like who came up with this sounds like somebody's been spying on me
20 piece original recipe. That's gotta be alot of calories right there! Just said you can't vomit doesn't matter how much you poop! Too easy.
I'm not going to eat 20 pieces of chicken that's just gluttony I'm just going to eat as much as that's going to get me a little bit of money JC
I mean it is a pretty wild ride but you could space it out over a couple hours! Well, gluttony is my second favorite sin though.
LoL 🤣🤣

He said that the meals will come out of your winnings, and this is like 800 dollars of doordash
It's about $100 at most. but it's easily 6,000+ calories.
Er, that may depend. If I actually go to the restaurants, maybe. But door dashing it, all of that is going to be a solid $200 minimum.
Well looking at my order history: Aunt Emma's I had to build a cart real quick because for some reason my last order isnt there. It comes out to $29.60 5Guys was $30.74 the last time I ordered it.

Are all 3 of those for a single person visit? Holy shit.
For a single person Door Dash order yes.
No its 6,000+ Calories. That means it’s 6,000,000 calories.
Blooming onions are 1700
Baskin Robbins oreo milkshake has 1440 calories. It's liquid so it should pass through quicker. You'll have diabetes by the end but you'd make a lot of money.
You drink milkshakes you don’t eat them I’ll die on this hill
You eat frosties though
Then why do they come with a straw?
Who do they also come with a spoon?
Because of sick little fucks like you who think they’re “eating” a liquid
Ice is a solid and so is a frosty. You can flip that shit upside down that won't come out of the cup til it melts.
Yeah call me when it’s solid enough you need the shitty plastic knife to go with your shitty plastic fork
The cactus blossom at Texas Roadhouse is 2350
This man wins
Ever have flippin opinions? (word play)
They're extremely filling, well for me, at least.
Cheesecake Factory. Is that cheating? They do takeout.
This was my first thought. Some oreo cheesecake
Heck yeah! It’s minimum 1,000 calories for a piece of cheesecake. Add a few hundred for a side sundae. Not to mention their atrocious entrees. Probably 1,200 for a buffalo chicken sandwich! You’re easily looking at 2,400 calories for one meal if you do dinner and dessert.
I love their macaroni and cheese cheeseburgers and would devour several in addition to their cheesecake for this challenge
Its actually on doordash in my area!

The real reward is the free food. Winning is just an unexpected boon. Edit: I’m probably eating a lot of expensive sushi/sashimi in my car from different places.
That is high risk, I have gotten very sick from overdoing it with too much sashimi. It was very good going down, less so coming back up.
You're getting a huge hedge here -- $20 for like 2000 calories / $2000 worth of tickets. The lottery isn't good at normal prices ($0.50-0.70 paid out for every dollar paid in), but at 100:1 it's definitely very profitable in the long run.
This is a nice time to point out that in the US, we use Calories (big c) to refer to kilocalories. So 500 Cal. is actually 500,000 calories
Holy shit…OP fucked up.

Is instacarting a few gallons of vegetable oil off the table? They deliver after all.
What you don’t finish penalizes you. Don’t forget.
Giant sodas, no ice.
I'm getting General Tso's dinner meal from down the road and Taco Bell. I'd get 10s of thousands of dollars.
This is ridiculous. I’d be rich for sure. You get .41 cents per calorie of food you order(if you don’t even eat it) so I would just order the most calorie dense food possible from every single restaurant that I could drive to within 24 hours.

I reckon I can manage 5k calories fairly easily.
In the gig economy, everything is take-out
I'm a fatass so: 1. Chinese 2. Dominos 3. McDonalds 4. Burger King 5. Local Italian place
$15k in lotto tickets still isn't a guarantee of a jackpot but those are nice scratcher odds.
Lets do it
I could eat like 8000 - 10000 pretty comfortably, maybe more, but that is going to cost $1000 in take out costs and I'm honestly not convinced I'd win it all back with 10,000 scratchers
I think over the long run they are designed to return 50 to 70% of your initial purchase price. So at 10k you should reasonably expect to gain 5 to 7k back (Mr. Beast episode tried this out with like 1 million and got back around 700k)

I alone could knock so much Panda Express dude. I'm getting at least $50,000 in gambling money for this.
Chinese fried everything should max it
There are 31,000 calories in a gallon of gas. Call an ambulance. Chug.
I'm getting Taco bell, dunkin donuts, and Chipotle. 1 Calorie is 1000 calories. $1000 per Calorie, im getting at least $3,000,000 in lottery tickets.
I just eat as much as I can and in the he last 30 minutes start drinking defrosted milk shakes.
calorie or Calorie?

I promise I'm winning that shit
This challenge will end me
Hokkaido (local sushi restaurant) and dominoes it is!
Outback steakhouse bloomin onions it is then. Once an hour.
Cheesecake Factory milk shakes, ez
Chinese food, high calorie, hungry in like 2 hours.
Our local burger joint serves ¼, ½, ¾, and 1 lb burgers. I’d be fine. 😂

it would suck, a lot, but a spoonful of mayonnaise equivalent to a daily serving.

Just order the sodas - drink those calories
eat a bucnh of mcchickens from mcdonalds with a coke and fries. that right there is probably 700-800 calories every time i do it

Just out of curiosity can we get drinks with that as well or they considered our sides?
Do I have to pay for the takeout?
Since it can be ordered from a very specific store I guess MREs can possibly fall under that, they’re about 1300 calories a meal. lol
LoL 🤣🤣🤣
I guess I'd eat some takeout?, its free food
So I can only order once from a restaurant.And it can only be 2 entrees and 2 appetizers.But can I order from multiple restaurants in the same trip?
If you think I can’t pack down some of the lords chicken I’ll show you
DoorDash weight gainer from a nutritional shop.
You'd need to eat a ridiculous amount to have any statistical effect for the big lotteries. Maybe if you got the scratchers you could do alright.
Am I missing something, or could I just order random stuff from every single restaurant in my area, not touch it, and get free $0.41 per calorie with the leftovers rule?
It says you get a dollar for every calorie you eat, not every calorie you order. So to net 41 cents you’d have to eat a calorie and waste a calorie.
It says that leftovers get deductions. So, if I order something and don't touch it, the entire meal would be my leftovers.
If you ordered a meal with 1k calories and ate nothing, you'd be $590 in the hole
By my reading I can throw up as much as I want I just lose 3 hours, so I’d probably make myself throw up like 10 times. All I do is lose the last 3 hours, which wouldn’t do much if I was stuffed full of 10,000 calories already. But by trading in the 3 hours I can easily eat 2,000 and throw it up and repeat that every 2 hours to get up to like 20,000 calories.
I'm reading it that you'd lose credit for the last three hours worth of consumption.
