Chippy selling biggest fish and chips meal weighing 1st – and nobody’s finished it
Britain is known for its fish and chips, however one chippy is boasting to have the biggest portion in the whole of the UK.
The Chip Inn, in Huthwaite, Nottinghamshire, is famed for its huge food boxes and have now added the largest chippy tea in the country to their menu – containing a whopping 4,500 calories.
The chippy has created the 20-inch Codfather which consists of four battered cods, three portions of chips, eight sausages, four fish cakes and ten different sauces, according to The Mirror.

And it seems like it may be too much for people, as the owner says no one has finished it yet.

The fast food meal, which sets you back £40, weighs in at around 1st 4lbs, the same as a 43inch TV, and the box has to be wrapped in sellotape so it doesn’t burst open.
Devouring the monstrous meal means more than doubling your recommended calorie allowance.
Megann Altinoz, 42, who owns the shop with husband Erdal, 45, said: “It’s the largest UK fish and chip box in the UK.
“I haven’t seen another one that big. People compete for the biggest kebab but not fish and chips.
“The box is really, really big.”
She added: “It’s hard to describe how heavy the boxes are but the 20-inch ones are a struggle to lift when they’re ready. I have to get some someone to help me lift it.
“It’s like a work out. They’re so full that we have to wrap them in sellotape and force them shut.
“A lot of people see them online and say they can do it, and then their friends usually say they want to have a go as well.
“No-one has been able to finish the box yet.”
The chip shop first shot to fame back in 2019 for selling the world’s largest kebab which contained 5,350 calories.

The takeaway say customers flock from as far as Florida, USA, which is over 4000 miles away, to get their hands on the meal.
Megann added: “We’ve had people come from the USA.
“They were travelling to London and came to our shop because they had heard about it online.
“We went viral for our kebab box, which was the largest in the world. The Codfather box is actually bigger than that one by five inches.
“It’s amazing that people from around the world know us because of our boxes. We definitely have American style portions.
“If we notice a different accent in the shop we’ll ask if they’ve travelled far, and we still get people coming from far away. We have had people from Scotland and Cornwall come and try them.”
She added: “The shop has been a family business for about 24 years. We took over in 2010 and we started doing the different food boxes in 2017.
The idea came about when a customer came in and ordered a kebab but she asked if we could put it in a pizza box.
“We took a video if it and shared it on Facebook and it went from there. Now our weekends are absolutely crazy and we get people queuing outside.”
The huge meals range from fish feasts to burger boxes, as well as a meat special which features doner kebab, chicken meat, and two large portions of chips.
However, Megann claims the most popular is the famous burger box, which consists of a ten-inch pizza topped with four burgers.
The £30 meal also comes with doner and chicken meat, onion rings and chicken nuggets.
The videos of the meals posted by the couple have gained millions of views, with one gaining over 25,000 comments.
“We have a lot of people who comment on the videos on Facebook,” Megann added.
“We have even have had someone tag Gordon Ramsay in one of the videos to see if he if he would do a TikTok video about them.
“We’ve also had Will Mellor sharing them. It’s all gone crazy.”
