never ordered one, but i.r.o $20.

I've never seen anyone order one and then not subsequently a) order more bread or b) leave half.

First time I went to vegas one meal a day was pretty standard too. Two once the stomach has adjusted a bit.

Definitely couldn't eat 3 with US portions

Who has ever finished a US portion?!

Ordering starters and I still couldn't manage them!! absolutely ridic.

Honestly, Andrew, it's almost obscene, the size of the portions out here. And so many obese people, never seen so many in my life. It seems to be accepted as normal here though. Think I'd be as fat as a pig if I lived here. Carnegies motto is, I gather, "if you can eat it all, we are doing something wrong". I'll post a pic of a 3 egg omelette sarny later, it's truly comical to see, & try to get the mouth round. 1 of those per day is all I eat, or need. I got a portion of chips/fries the other day, it filled a carrier bag. Inside the bag were eight Tomato Ketchup sachets, too.

Strangest thing I saw was at Disney World, a small child, still in a pram eating one of these smoked turkey legs.  I swear the turkey leg was almost the size of the childs head!

Seeing a queue of people waiting to get their semi-raw smoked turkey legs looked like something out of a bad zombie movie.

I've been out here in Phuket nearly 2 and a half months now and I have only seen 3 or 4 people who I would class as obese. The portions are smaller than in the UK and America but now I'm used to them, you really get a sense of how much we over-eat in the UK. America is a different story!

LOL It's like kids football where they all just run after the ball, do they have no positional sense? Gotta love how many missed tackles there were

Looked like excellent coverage to me, they should of had him for a negative, they might do a bit of work on the tackling...
