endless shrimp and large purses
dun ‘em in
You know once in a while when my Iron is low I go to Golden Corral and eat their steak like a Tyrannosaurus Rex. Mind you I don’t do this often because GC has raised their prices and yes gluttony. However when I need the extra Iron it really makes me feel better for days.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
I am a six foot guy and that’s more beef than I eat in 2 weeks. I am low on Iron but doc says take iron pills, do not change diet. Weird, my Iron was high a year ago...Same diet.
Only been to a Red Lobster once and I love shrimp. The food was low quality, therefore I never returned. The endless deal is nuts. I only buy my shrimp at the fish store. peeled per pound cost $10. Takes 5 minutes to cook. Delicious.
Anyway, like I was sayin’, shrimp is the fruit of the sea. You can barbecue it, boil it, broil it, bake it, saute it. Dey’s uh, shrimp-kabobs, shrimp creole, shrimp gumbo. Pan fried, deep fried, stir-fried. There’s pineapple shrimp, lemon shrimp, coconut shrimp, pepper shrimp, shrimp soup, shrimp stew, shrimp salad, shrimp and potatoes, shrimp burger, shrimp sandwich. That... that’s about it.
They don't have an SEC (Shrimp Eaters Commission) that dictates that they keep the All You Can Eat promotion lights-on. Sheesh. If they were losing money and they kept it up for crazy people who binge-eat shrimp, then Red Lobster deserves to go to Davy Jones' Locker.
Too bad this gluttonous hog didn’t have a an iodine reaction.
“I gotta save Bubba….”
“One customer claimed she managed to guzzle down 108 shrimp as part of the deal by staying at the restaurant for four and a half hours.”
It’s sad when people are proud of what they should be ashamed of.
I can get a 2 lb. bag of very good quality, nice-sized frozen, deveined and cooked shrimp for well under $25 at Kroger, and I don’t need an audience while I eat. What is it that drives some people to be in other people’s faces, in public, while they stuff their own faces with junk food just for the hell of it?
“So tell me was this a big thing and were people really pigging out on shrimp to this degree so that the place is now going under?”
Reminds me of Beef Steak Charlies in the 80’s. All the shrimp you can eat and all the beer, wine and sangria you can drink.
Denny’s used to do all you could eat Hot Boiled Shrimp every Wednesday night after 5pm..we would go load up on them nearly every week...Was not uncommon to chow down on 100 of them...Lady one time who was waiting on us said hey we have other stuff on the menu and I spoke up and told her yep you do but I don’t have Hot Boiled Shrimp at home so bring another load to the table...
Fo hour!
Why you here fo hour?
You come here no more!
I remember that.
Bingo. Me too. That was once in 1988 for a military hail and farewell. That’s the only time I’ve ever been there. The food was substandard.

This person didn't peak in high school; they peaked at Red Lobster.
Also Americans: Eat so much that a restaurant chain has to file bankruptcy.
yeah, that was very rude, YATAH.
Golden Corral is another example but probably worse. I like a few things on their menu but won’t go there because so many of the other patrons are outright disgusting with their gluttony. What a country, filled with fat ass gluttons who counti it a lifetime achievement to stuff themselves just because they can.
