We usually run into places like that when we're on vacation. We're in
an unfamiliar place, traveling around - staying in a different motel
almost every night (so no desire to take leftovers with us) and most
likely will never make a return visit there. Portions are so huge
that we would have split it had we known before hand how much they put
on the plate. We can only look at all that food in amazement and say
"no wonder Americans are fat".
