Some restaurants have kid meals that can really be considered adult size. For example, a few weeks ago, my daughter and I ate at this restaurant called Dallas BBQ. My daughter ordered chicken fingers and french fries from the kids menu. Those chicken fingers were HUGE and they gave her around 4 or 5 of them. There was no way she was going to eat all of that. I could've ordered that meal for myself and would've been nice and full, lol.

The portions at Dallas BBQ are ridiculous. I went to one with a friend once. We got a half portion of wings. Between the two of us we couldn't even finish it.

I thought about letting it slide, but then again, DA likes the reinforcement.

I don't know what got me started, but I've been collecting since I was about 8. I think it might have been the antique earring tree I inherited from my Grandmother that was a mushroom with an adorable frog sitting under it. I even has some live ones for awhile.

I do at fast food places if I'm not very hungry. At a restaurant I wouldn't, although my boyfriend's 15 y/o sister does because she has a health problem that means she can't eat a lot of things.

This thread inspired me so much that I ate a kid's hamburger meal today at lunch.

Dude, my first "legal" job when I was 16 was at Taco Bell. It's the only fast food I don't shutter to think how things are made because I know. But then again, I remember getting reamed by our manager because we got a 96% on our Health Inspection, and she'd never had less then 100%, so I don't have any disgusting horror stories.
ETA: Husband likes the tacos and Mexican pizzas. If we ever move to his hometown in Mexico, we're opening a franchise. He says it will go over huge.
