Golden Corral:

I just don't get it, if you are going to eat like an normal human being, there wouldn't be enough space for more than maybe 2 types of their crap food, at fairly small portions since you are doing two, like half a steak and a couple shrimps, and it's not like you are bringing a big bag with you to fill up food so you can go back home and live off of it during the winter...When would you ever want access to that much food at once?

Here’s why these things come out, food scientists manipulating us:

io9.gizmodo.com

How 'Hyperpalatable' Foods Could Turn You Into A Food Addict

Over a third of the global population is now overweight, and the percentages are increasing. Some neuroscientists have suggested that the rise of so-called "hyperpalatable foods" may partially explain the unprecedented rates of obesity.

I have no idea where I am
I want to open a chain of all-you-can-eat buffets where the food is dumped into a long trough and customers have to step on a cattle scale as they enter and another one at the cash register. The menu would be, of course, comprised of mostly corn syrup, salt and fat.

I'd call it Hog Slopers.

My restaurant idea is called “the bucket” for fat hipsters. Everything is served in an artisanal zinc infused galvanized bucket, the meal itself will float in something like a shit ton of beans, or coleslaw or clam chowder but probably mostly gravy. And will have clever names island and boat names and all that fucking bullshit.

Yup, can't forget the Obese Hipster demographic. Might I suggest having your logo printed on beard bibs so the fat fucks don't accidentally dip their neck beards in the artesian Opossum gravy.

There used to be a place in the Bay Area that used to weigh kids coming in & leaving, and they would be charged accordingly. This was almost 50 years ago. Good times!

However people would work the system. They'd wait to take a shit at the restaurant to get their weight down only to fill back up. It would be like eating for free!:headbang::neo:
