We have a popular burger place here and their burgers are ginormous. I can't eat all of it -so don't even try. I will get a kids meal of something else.
And for the size of the burger - prices isn't bad - 10 bucks or so.
But the place sells out daily. They have like triple meat burgers, avocado swiss burgers, bacon and hot cheetos burgers - all sorts of combinations. Those things are huge - don't know how people eat them. I would have to use a knife and fork.
I got a deal last night. Free pizza! We decided to order, so I did it online with a popular chain that has the best pizza in this pizza-and-Italian-food wasteland in which I currently reside and suffer from the lack of same.
I got a response that my order was received and expected arrival was 40 minutes later.
So I waited, and I waited, and finally 25 minutes past the expected time, I called.
Well, you don't get the actual shop that you called, Oh no. I got a call center somewhere where somebody with an Indian accent answered after five minutes of really painful music that sounded like an old tape recorder that was broken. They said they'd call the shop, and a minute later came back on and said my order had never printed out, and since they have a policy that you get your pizza in 40 minutes or it's free, which I didn't even know, I'd be getting free pizza in ten to fifteen minutes!
By the time I got it, it was and hour and a half after my order was placed, and I was hangry, but hey, it was free. I did tip the delivery dude, because it wasn't his fault, and he said they had printer problems.
I thought it was just me! I haven't eaten in a real restaurant lately, but have been trying to find a good cheeseburger because the one I used to always buy just doesn't taste the same. They made the hamburger patty smaller, so now the bun/burger ratio no longer works. Unfortunately, every other place I've tried has done the same thing.
Heart Attack Grill. The Triple Bypass Burger.
Quadruple Bypass Burger.
A while back, some guy polished off an Octuple Bypass Burger
That's eight half-pound beef patties, 40 slices of bacon, 16 slices of cheese, a whole onion, two tomatoes and chili. Plus the buns. It weighs a whopping 6.5 pounds, about four pounds of which is the meat.
The Octuple Bypass Burger costs $24.02. The 40 bacon slices cost an additional $7.39. Flatliner Fries, deep fried in pure lard, are a mere $1.85.

Guinness Book of World Record Holder - The world's most calorific burger (Heart Attack Grill, USA, 2013)
"Quadruple Bypass" - Total calories: 9,982.
So I am guessing that the Octuple Bypass would be close to 20,000 calories or enough calories for 10 days.
I know nothing about smaller portions as I only eat out 2X a year and that's at an Asian Buffet, where there's no concern over smaller portions. I haven't eaten at a fast food Hamburger place in over a year, so as I read these posts. I will continue to avoid them.
I rarely cook anymore, all my food is done in the Slow Cooker. Stove only used for boiling eggs, potatoes and baking brownies/cakes. I may as well throw away my fry pans.
There's so many walkable/bikeable locations near my house, I only use the car 2-3X a month.
"buffet" makes me wonder if people have seen differences at buffets.
