No they don't--remember, a "poor" guy in the US is a Bill Gates when you place him in somewhere like Iran or Ethiopia.

Yeah, but portions have gone up significantly thanks to cheap beef, etc. I remember reading an article where they compared a Big Mac from when Mcdonalds first opened to now, and todays burger was twice as big. Fountain drinks are now three times the size compared to when Mc'D's first opened.

Of course, I'll bet back then as well they had people properly making the food--putting on proper portions of everything else like lettuce and tomatoes, instead of just hiring grade-school dropouts to put meat between bread.

The Big Macs here are about 1/2 the size they were when they first opened here. They aren't bigger in Vancouver, either.

Put an end to popups!

I'm 6'4" and 225 lbs., but muscle weighs more than fat.

... and I think St. Leo is a big penis, too.

***** ********* **********

So, in a completely unrelated topic, I'm currently sharing a dressing room at a local theatre with 2 other actors. All 3 of us are straight. A couple of weeks ago, after one particularly hot evening (something was out of whack with the theatre's thermostats) we were all changing out of our costumes when one of the actors said of himself "I stink !"

While I distinctly heard him, the other actor didn't quite hear him correctly, froze and said with a bit of concern, "What did you say?"

The first actor repeated " I said I stink."

Always the provocateur, I said "What do you think he said ?"

The second actor said "Never mind..."

This piqued the first actor's curiosity, too. After a bit of cajoling, the second actor said "I thought you said Nice d!nk."

So I said "So he likes your d!nk, can't you take a compliment ?"

Anyway for the next couple of weeks the three of us used "Nice d!nk !" as a greeting. This confused the other company members.

You know, the other thing about the US diet is that our food is chock full of additives that help us pack on those pounds. I ate fairly healthily in the US. When I moved to Turkey, my diet didn't change at all, nor did I get more exercise -- but I dropped 10 pounds or so in the first two months, just because the food here is healthier.

Yep, chock full of additives.
Actually, Rufus T. Firefly's comment does apply to most people I know outside of my house.

5'11.5", about 140; I win, fatsos. Actually, I'm quite a few pounds underweight. But I've still pimp-smacked you punks. Excuse me now, I have to make myself vomit in the toilet again.....

(just kidding)

BTW, did McDonald's even have Big Macs when they first came out? If not, all the article is saying is that two patties contain twice as much meat as one.
