I'm an Aussie, and had landed in America for a holiday. Was really hungry and figured I'd just get a Quarter Pounder meal from Maccas at the airport. Order a Large meal because that's what I'd normally get at home. They bring out like a litre of coke, a gigantic box of fries, and the burger. It was absolutely atrocious.

So you knew all the stories of American food portions and you still chose to order a meal that even we call "large"?

Not everything you read and hear is true, either way - I was not prepared for that much of a difference. This was like 10 years ago mind you, so the difference is either far less or much worse.

This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.
