Default What specific food can you eat the most of?

What food can you eat the most of in one sitting? Pizza, wings, etc..

I can CRUSH sushi. I'm not a big man (160 lbs), however, I've been cut off at "all you can eat" sushi joints by the staff for over eating. My wife just watches me eat with a look of both pride and shame.

I am with you on the sushi. I prefer nigiri with really hot wasabi(green dyed horseradish). I live in really rural America so the few all you can eat places only have maki rolls in with the rest of the Asian buffet.

I have to drop off a couple full sheets for a member in a month. Can't wait to hit the bigger Sushi selection in the big city(LOL) while there.

I can always eat a ton of breakfast food. Whenever I go to a diner or restaurant I always get their "big breakfast" (always a different name) with a few extra sides. And I always come out able and wanting to eat it all again 😂

Ya'll are making me so hungry. I've on intravenous nutrition for about 7 weeks after bowel surgery. I don't know how long I'll be on it.

I graze throughout the day, lots of small "meals" as opposed to three big ones.

So, I'm a lightweight compared to most.

I once ate 17 slices of NY style pizza in one sitting. At my worst, I would routinely eat 2-3 medium Dominos pies at a time. Also could finish off a large box of Captain Crunch in a sitting. Another weakness for me is roast pork fried rice. I can pound down a family-sized order without blinking an eye.

Which is the reason I am a fat bastard.

I love all types of food, but at some point I hit an age where I realized if I ate too much of anything all at once, I was going to feel like trash for the next several days.

Try to pace myself now.

I can still get into trouble with takeout Chinese. That's a definite weakness for me, where my eyes are way bigger than my stomach, and I end up paying the price for it. Can't help just loading my plate up, while the rest of the family just looks at me...and basically dares me to eat everything on my plate.

I can pound down a lot of sushi, if it's actually any good, and is very fresh.

There's a very fine line between very good sushi and very bad sushi...and sometimes you can get both at the same place, depending on which day you go, who's working the kitchen, how fresh their most recent batch of fish is, and other various factors.

Most of the "all you can eat" places I've been to, don't make me want to actually eat very much there.

The smaller sushi places that tend to be the best to me, and I've had grocery store sushi that's way better then the stuff you might get in a fancy sit-down restaurant.

Ice cream or seafood gumbo. I can almost make myself sick eating either one. A few months ago I had to stop buying ice cream. I can't control myself!

Easy for me. I always tell my wife if I could only eat one thing the rest of my life, it would be the Atlantic Blue Crab........Steamed or boiled with Old Bay Seasoning........Wel it New Years Eve. Time for our tradition of seafood dinner.

And my three dogs.......Oatmeal. I have oatmeal for breakfast 5-6 times a week and they go absolutely nuts for it. Whining and barking every morning. Sometimes I make them their own batch.

^^Never heard of that for dogs. Maybe i try that for my dog to see he likes it.

I cut down the last few yrs...a lot!!!
As some may know...i been to the Dr's frequently the past 2+ yrs.
They also put me on Mounjaro...mainly for blood sugar, but also lose weight.
As for side affects...the sulphur burps, nasuea, bloating and gas.
I cant over-eat or stuff myself....smaller meals and if i get cravings my go -to is a handful of walnuts during a game.

For the oatmeal I sweeten it with Agave instead of sugar. And add canned Carnation milk.

pawpaw - good luck with your health. I have my diabetes and weight issues myself so I know how difficult it can be,

Thanks,
Bob

That's my relationship with Doritos.

I'll eat a whole bag without even realizing it. Then I'll wake up several times in the middle of the night choking back acid reflux.

Just gotta walk by it when I see it on the grocery shelves.

HaHa, probably true.


....though when I say "acid reflux", it's when you wake up in the middle of the night, just before you're about to drown in your own stomach acid, and you have to go run over to the bathroom sink to try and get the burning sensation out of your throat, mouth and sinuses.

That said...the wife just sent me out for New Years Eve snacks...and of course I come back with wings, shrimp, cocktail sauce, crackers, stuff for a crab dip, potato chips, taco chips..........and a bag of Doritos.

Add me to the ice cream list. Just can't buy it because I will eat it all. It doesn't take much either because of Diabetes I rarely eat it. So a little will give me a gut ache and make me hit 300BG on my Libre3. Still too stupid not to eat it all though, gotta love blurry vision.

I only have a cheat meal/item once every month or two. Because i had a bad experience with meds am doing the best I can without any. So with the very strict diet pretty much anything out of the ordinary gives me stomach issues. I have been lucky and lost 44 pounds this year. Lost it semi quick at the beginning of the year and have been able to keep it off. With most of the extra weight off it also seems to be way easier to control my BG. I hit my weight goal. Turns out it wasn't near enough so hoping for another 20 this year. All my fat was in my abdomen area so now I look 4 months pregnant instead of looking like I was ready to have a kid.

Hope the bladder cancer stays away for you.

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.

Did any of you guys have Beefsteak Charlie's in your neck of the woods?

If so, there is only one answer - peel and eat shrimp!!!!!!!!!

Beefsteak Charlies was GREAT!

First time we went there as a family, my younger sister was so excited about the shrimp.

Even as a young kid she had enjoyed shrimp many times as my mother would cook them up at home. Mom was always good at preparing food and would peel them as well.

So . . . my sister loads up with the shrimp and tops them off with the cocktail sauce. That was the night that she learned that shrimp have to be peeled! What a mess she made peeling the now sauced shrimp!

Maryland Blue crab - ~ 40 large (Free. BASS tx in MD)
Steamed littlenecks ~200 ($9.99. AYCE bar in PA)
Steamed Shrimp ~5lbs ($9.99 AYCE + AYCD draft in FL)
Steamed Crawfish 3 large roasting trays. 20-25 lbs?? (Free. BASS tx in LA)

Add pasta, Pizza, gumbo, and Broccoli Rabe and my weekly meal plans are set for the rest of my life. Which probably wouldn't be for long.

My favorite before sleep snack is a family sized package of REGULAR Oreos and a quart of WHOLE milk.

I do not split them.

I do dip them.

Two at a time.

Until the bubbles stop.

Hot Dogs and Hashbrowns - I love Hot Dogs and probably eat 5x a week. Also Hashbrowns, as a side, literally for 3-4 dinners a night (not BFD, just with whatever)

I just hate it when I see on the tub of ice cream and it reads 8-9 servings when they know full well that there is only one serving in there!
