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? |
