500 grams of ground beef is barely enough for two skimpy burgers for
us... I typically prepare 12 ounce burgers.

That's appalling. Most gluttons would be satisfied with a half pound burger - in each hand.

You must be a very tiny wimp.

A 12 oz burger isn't much, after it's cooked it's like a cooked 12oz
steak, in fact that's what it's called at greasy spoons, a 12 oz
chopped steak... on the blue plate special it comes with a baked spud
and a veggie, usually includes a salad too.
We only get to eat about 3/4 of those 12 oz burgers because the cats
get a share too. I don't understand how those fast food joints
advertise 1/4 pounders like they're some big deal meal... to me a 1/4
pounder is a burger for a six year old... normal 8 year olds can eat
two w/fries no problem and can still down a shake.

Beats the heck out of me how yoose can guess my size by the fact that yoose make hamburgers of unreasonable proportions. Why the heck are yoose feeding dose cats ground and cooked meat? Does yoose hate cats?

Bullshit... parents don't allow their kids to have normal play, all
they can do is fake play dates with other obeastie brats.

I guess he does this to fit the giant buns he bakes ... probably 8-10
inches wide.
