Jaw locking sandwich

I used this story as my launching off point. The attached article makes a good point that at least the guy didn't see an opportunity to sue the sandwich maker, or the sandwich.
Years ago when I was on a streek of dating Australian and British guys ( cute and the accent, growl) I enjoyed hearing their take on the difference between the US and their country. US got high marks for the friendliest service, freedom to be whatever you want to be, but low marks on our personal largesse.
"look at this" one of my accented lovers would exclaim point to a plate of food in a restaurant. "it's too much, this is a serving for 2 or 3 people."
"really?" I said as I shoveled part of my meal into a take out container, thinking that lunch for tomorrow was in the bag.
But, maybe they have a point.
I love the cultural perspective take from non USA'ers.
And I'm a sucker for accents, too.
And, yes…our portion sizes ARE disgusting!!!
HAHA! And of course he ha to be from Georgia, where I live!
My hubby and I usually split our meals at restaurants because the portions are just so big.
But some restaurants ARE taking the hint and offer smaller portions of their dishes. For instance, Carrabas (one of my fave italian restaurant chains) just started offering smaller portions.
I guess this new menu offers of smaller meals needs to catch on. I only hope more people do start ordering from the smaller size menu!
American's think bigger is better…still.
it's the accents and the turn of phrase. growl.
Where in Georgia, Frances? my daddy grew up there..and northern Fla, which is the same thing. Valdosta, Atlanta, marietta.
