Hardee's New Breakfast Platter, 860 calories for $2.50

Hardee's new Breakfast Platter supplies the cheap calories... only $2.50 for 860 calories and 55 grams of fat! (complete nutritional info below)

It has scrambled eggs, two strips of bacon, hash rounds potatoes and biscuits covered with sausage gravy.
“Hardee’s has many breakfast classics on its menu, and people often mix-and-match them to get the best of everything,” said Brad Haley, executive vice president of marketing for Hardee’s Food Systems. “Well, now we’ve done that for them with the new Hardee Breakfast Platter. It’s got it all: eggs, bacon, potatoes, a buttermilk biscuit and sausage gravy. Normally, people would have to go to a sit-down restaurant or a breakfast diner to get a meal like that and would end up paying a lot more. Our new platter is, indeed, a ‘Hardee’ breakfast for people with hearty appetites on a budget.”

I could likely eat two or three with ease but I would then, with time, weigh as much as two or three normal people.

I don't know about the calories in this, breakfast looked nothing like the picture here. Very anemic portions with terrible gravy that was thick and gelatinous. Only had a bit of the gravy and made a lamest thinnest egg with 2 minuscule pieces of bacon on it. There were only 8 tater got things on my plate.
