My problem is that I can't stuff my face with enough food at a buffet to
justify a $29 to $65 entry fee. I have seen FOB Chinese guys with huge
plates of food at all-you-can- eat joints. I don't know how they do it. They
tend to be really skinny middle aged people. I've even seen old Chinese
ladies doing this too. It's highly amusing and wondrous!

You are not alone. I can't eat large amounts at one time either so it would
be a waste for me too.
