For me it depends on if it's good or not. Some stuff if it's done right I will eat as much as I can get. But done wrong, and a little bit is too much.

I used to be a big eater.
On the way to paintball we were looking for breakfast.
House with an enclosed porch, antlers on the outside wall and a plywood sign that said "food" .... And it was surrounded by pickup trucks, and not the suburban type.

Insisted we stop.
At the time I was maybe 190-200? And just under 6 feet.

Most places have varying size breakfasts. one egg, two egg, three egg...
there? also 4 egg, 5 egg and 6 egg.
And the "big breakfast", simply described as "some of everything"
That's the one for me!

Waitress had doubts. "are you sure honey? It's a lot of food."
Yeah, I'm sure..

The big guys at another table paid and ordered more coffee.... Just how big is this breakfast that I have apparently gotten an audience?

Literally a platter of everything. Like 6 french toast, 6 pancakes, 6 waffles. Three different sorts of toast. A medium platter of scrambled eggs, one of ham, one of bacon, one of sausage links another of sausage patties..... All of it really good.
Yes, ALL of it. Every last bite.

The silent thumbs up from the huge guy (Like 6'6" 300+) sitting nearby stands as one of the biggest compliments I've ever had.

Never found that place again. It was also so inexpensive I suspect they hijacked a truck full of food.
