Morrisons' £12 'Big Daddy' Breakfast Draws TikTok Attention for 3,002 Calories

A viral TikTok review praised the meal's value, noted hard egg yolks, and referenced its 3,002-calorie total against NHS daily guidance.

Overview

  • Morrisons reintroduced the 23-item Big Daddy Breakfast to its café menus for Father's Day on Sunday, June 21, as a plated offering listed at 3,002 calories and priced at £12.
  • The TikTok creator from the UK's Newest Foods filmed the full meal, said it was very good value, could not finish it, took leftovers home, and complained that the egg yolks were hard rather than runny.
  • The reviewer added three slices of fried bread for 75p, which the reporting notes increases the meal by about 221 calories.
  • Coverage and social media comments have focused on price and portion size, with many viewers calling the £12 plate strong value and suggesting it could be shared between two people.
  • Journalists and readers have compared the dish's 3,002 calories to typical NHS guidance of roughly 2,500 calories for men and 2,000 for women, and the viral clip highlights how oversized café plates and social media can shape footfall and debate about portion control and food preparation.
