Jimmy John’s — JJ Gargantuan
Jimmy John's aptly named JJ Gargantuan sandwich is everything you want in a sub and more — much more. It's got five kinds of meat (salami, capicola, turkey, roast beef, and ham) and a slew of other ingredients, all in one 12-inch package that's over two days' worth of sodium.
The Jimmy John's site notes just below a studio photograph of the Gargantuan: "Let's be honest, my sandwiches ain't gonna look this pretty, but they will be tasty!"

Chili’s — The Boss Burger
Based on the name of this burger, Chili's knew they were making the biggest, sodium-packed burger they possibly could. Their website says it all: "The burger all other burgers report to. Smoked brisket, tender rib meat, jalapeño-cheddar smoked sausage, bacon & cheddar with lettuce, tomato, House BBQ & house-made ranch."
If the steak knife sticking out of the bun wasn't enough, they even challenge any prospective diner: "We. Dare. You."
