We’ve seen crazy calorie counts before, but this one is truly insane.

When Men’s Health contributor Sarah Jacobsson Purewal sat down for a family meal at Cracker Barrel, she was shocked when she used the My Fitness Pal app to check the nutrition stats for CB’s Baked Apple Dumplin.

According to My Fitness Pal, this dish packs 3,229 calories. Yes, 3,229!

To double-check those numbers, we visited the Cracker Barrel website, hoping that perhaps My Fitness Pal was wrong.

There was no such information on the site. But we did find this FAQ:

Is nutritional information available for your menu items?

Here at Cracker Barrel, we pride ourselves on using recipes and ingredients that are genuine and of the highest quality available. We strive to prepare and present these food items to you in a way that upholds those authentic traditions of days gone by. Cracker Barrel certainly understands the health-conscious concerns that some of our guests have. While we are currently unable to provide exact calorie or fat content information for our entire menu, the following choices may help you in your selection. You can get very specific nutritional information on some select dishes at both weightwatchers.com and healthydiningfinder.com

Well, thanks for that Cracker Barrel. In other words: “We’re not going to tell you calorie counts because you would FREAK OUT!”

Seriously. The only reason Cracker Barrel is “unable to provide exact calorie or fat content information” is because they don’t want to. Or perhaps because they haven’t been forced to. Which is cool—that’s the company’s right. But if you don’t want to provide nutrition information, we say, just don’t provide it—and save us the lame excuse in your FAQ section.

On a side note, Sarah challenged her 26-year-old brother Timmy—who’s competing in the CrossFit Regionals in Asia in a few weeks—to see if he could actually eat the entire Baked Apple Dumplin in 10 minutes. And you know how it is: When your sister lays down a dare, you can’t just walk away. So he put in his order.

And . . . he was successful.

We had two questions for Timmy:

1. How did it taste?

“It was okay. I thought it would be denser, considering the calorie count, but the dumpling part was actually pretty light and fluffy. It wasn’t amazing, though. I’d say the ice cream was the best part.”

2. How did you feel afterward?

“I felt fine! But I ate it at 10 a.m. and I wasn’t hungry for about 10 hours. My mom was convinced I was going to go into diabetic shock.”

Glad that didn’t happen. For what it’s worth, the company line from most restaurants on such desserts is that they’re not meant for one person—they’re meant to be shared. Fair enough: Even if you split this dumpling dish between four people, you’ll still be putting away 807 calories.
