That dude looks pretty big to be getting a discount. Maybe that's just so everyone feels good about the system.

Personally from my experience Really skinny people can eat a shit ton and have a hard time putting on weight making them need to eat more
Well, that's not embarrassing at all . . .
I will break that thing trying to get through the 100%
I dunno. I'm 75kg and could out eat a truck driver in a pie eating contest.
135kg here, pretty sure I could fit through the 30%. I guarantee the 20%. More worried about having to duck.
Thin people can actually eat more in a single meal than fat people because their stomach is of equal size, but fat people's stomach has to push against a fat layer that thin people don't have- or at least have a lot less of. It's why thin people are generally better at winning eating contests.

Idk man, I have some obese relatives and they eat so much at a single meal that it makes me nauseous just observing it. They may have fat pushing against their stomachs, but I'm pretty sure their stomachs are stretched out to the max.
That just illustrates the difference that is an all you can eat business and a single event contest
Restaurants need repeat customers. Ignoring exclusions for special considerations or circumstances, if you are fat, eating larger portions of food than you need to when you eat is likely why you are fat.
Calories in calories out
Most people arent active enough to not get fat while eating large portions of food
Cool article, thanks for the link. I always wondered about that (as a skinny tall guy who can eat a lot in a single sitting).
I always thought height was also a factor because the stomach can stretch horizontally as well as vertically, but apparently not.
I totally read that as you could eat out a truck driver
I'm sure they could.
I read it as "could eat a truck driver".
Be sure and tell em Large Marge sent ya.
So they are overpriced and as "fat guy" you are sponsoring "skinny" ones.
Just like how skinny folks are sponsoring fat folks air fare.
Why are you using quotations?
The assumption is a fst person will eat more. So them paying more balances it out.
Meanwhile skinny people sponsor fatter ones on a regular buffet… Not sure that’s much better.
And at the hospital through our taxes. At least in civilized countries with healthcare.
So kids get food for free
Which is not totally uncommon at some buffets
