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.

the "tiny" burgers like the $5 biggie bag at Wendy's is the perfect amount of food. jr bacon cheeseburger, small fries, 4 piece nugget, drink.

THATS normal portion, even if it's not healthy, not a 1/2 lb double cheeseburger 6 inches in diameter, 3 inches thick and a 32oz bucket of cola.

Where the hell are yall getting burgers at? Every fastfood place near me serves anemic, poorly prepared burgers that are not worth the cost for taste and only rarely worth the time investment when it's near midnight and I need to absorb the alcohol in my stomach

Isn't that still over half your daily calories needed in your "normal portion"?

I was curious so i just checked. Assuming the drink is water and there's no dipping sauce or sauces added to the burger, it comes to 760 calories (macros are 44g fat, 63g carbs, 31g protein). That's definitely more than half of my daily calories, but I'm a middle-aged 5'0" lady. Still, that's a huge amount of fat, and surprisingly little protein!

As someone who usually eats just once a day (with some supplemental shakes on work days) I love American potions. One of the good things about this country.

The lack of veg is concerning though. It sucks that the alternative to fried potatoes is usually just a handful of leaves.

Some places won't let you order a kids meal unless you have a kid with you.

Twelve dallers? That's a steal post-inflation.
