Don't try this at home

Coming in at a mere 12,000 calories ( Yes, Twelve Thousand )

Breakfast: Three fried-egg sandwiches loaded with cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, fried onions and mayonnaise. Two cups of coffee. One five-egg omelet. One bowl of grits. Three slices of French toast topped with powdered sugar. Three chocolate-chip pancakes.

Lunch: One pound of enriched pasta. Two large ham and cheese sandwiches with mayo on white bread. Energy drinks packing 1,000 calories.

Dinner: One pound of pasta. An entire pizza. More energy drinks.

Can you imagine the cost of just one Phelps meal ?

Compare 12,000 to the USDA 2200 calories for a typical man. A pound a fat is said to take about 3,500 calories to produce so in a normal person this diet would put on about 90 pounds a month, a little under 1,100 pounds in a year.

I Can't wait to see the new chain of Phelps eateries all across America... and the world.

World_Groove, I like this story. It's good stuff.

I think the costs are not the problem with already six gold medals for Michael Phels:
