Numbers for the portion shown, the same as on each food's page. Sports are for someone of about 70 kg.

A whole pizza and a chippy fish and chips are at the top, with fondue, raclette and a full English close behind.

Most of the rest are takeaway and restaurant favourites: katsu curry, carbonara, tikka masala, a burrito, a doner. Big plates with cheese, cream, oil or batter.

None of this is food to avoid. It is just good to know which meals take a big part of your day, so you can plan the rest around them.

Questions

Which food has the most calories?

Per portion, a whole pizza and fish and chips top the list, followed by fondue and raclette.

Is a takeaway curry high in calories?

Creamy ones like tikka masala and katsu curry are near the top, especially with rice and naan.

Can I still eat these and lose weight?

Yes. Share it, have a smaller portion, or keep the rest of the day lighter. Counting it is what matters.
