I don't want to imagine it either but I think I saw one there today. I
should have taken note of what he ordered.
First thing he did was go to the condiment bar with a smallish cup. The
kind you get drinks in. He filled it up with some of the condiments. They
have a coleslaw type thing and he started with that, then topped it with the
pickled vegetables. Then he went at the chips with the whole bowl instead
of using the provided tongs. Just shoved his whole hand in there, bowl and
all and scooped up a heaping bowl of chips. He was a rather large and
greasy looking person. That's the type I could imagine ordering such a
thing.
