A cafe has launched a monstrous 15,000-calorie jacket potato challenge – and not a single soul has come close to conquering it.

Spudies is daring fearless foodies to demolish 10 fully loaded jacket spuds in just 45 minutes.

The mountain of mash is smothered under 1kg of cheese, oceans of butter and an outrageous line-up of heavy toppings.

Buried in the plate are mac and cheese, curry, chilli, beans, tuna, corn on the cob, pigs in blankets, turkey and coleslaw – enough to feed a small village.

The challenge, which launched only a month ago at the cafe in Rotherham, South Yorks, has already tempted three hopefuls.

All three failed spectacularly, with the best attempt hitting a staggering 6kg before the contestant waved the white flag.

It costs £40 to take part, but anyone who clears the plate within the time limit gets the meal for free and wins £50 cash.

Jonny Adams, the mastermind behind the supersized stunt, says it’s unbeatable.

“Nobody will ever be able to complete this one,” the 42-year-old, from Manchester, told What’s the Jam.

“It’s the biggest jacket potato challenge in the UK.

“It’s around 15,000 calories.

“The people who have tried it feel sick as a dog after.

“A professional eater tried it, and he was confident at the start, but began to struggle and had to be defeated, even though the food was beautiful.

“It’s funny when people are confident, then I watch it fade away.”

Jonny posted a clip of one brave customer attempting the beast, but they tapped out after 28 minutes.

Viewers were quick to chip in.

One commenter said: “Nobody can do that. At least he tried.”

Another wrote: “Ain’t no way. That can feed a family of 20.”

A third said: “Good effort. Well done. That is a lot.”

Someone else said: “Stupid challenge. Impossible. A challenge has to be possible otherwise it’s pointless.”

Another added: “Literally can’t be done so what’s the point?”
