According to a story aired on CNN, one of the highest calorie and highest fat breakfasts that can be had in the country is the newest breakfast burrito introduced by the fast food chain Hardee’s. 

 The Hardee’s breakfast burrito is a masterpiece when it comes to being an anti-fitness food. Marketed as “breakfast on the run”, the New Country Breakfast Burrito consists of two egg omelets filled with bacon, sausage, diced ham, cheddar cheese, hash browns and sausage gravy, all wrapped inside a flour tortilla. The burrito contains 920 calories and 60 grams of fat. Quite simply put it is not the most nutritious of breakfast foods. 

The government’s Center for Nutritional Policy and Promotion recommends a daily caloric intake ranging from 1,600 calories for sedentary women and older adults to 2,800 calories for teenage boys and active adults.  If you are sedentary and have the new Country Style Burrito then you will have had over half of your calories for the entire day!
