The super-size trend seems to have evolved to jumbo sized. It seems a restaurant in Germany has their own version of the [Heart Attack Grill](http://www.trendhunter.com/trends/heart-attack-grill). The Waldgeist restaurant in Hofheim serves up the biggest portion of Schnitzel I have ever seen!

To wash it down, order a titanic German beer. Will a 2L jug quench your thirst?

The photos show the world's largest schnitzel which is so enormous, the staff serves up a side of aluminum foil to pack up leftovers... and I should hope there would be a lot. A single one of these whoppers looks like it could feed an entire family. Also in the gallery is the restaurant's greasy mammoth of a burger. They also have a colossal bratwurst among other edible atrocities.
