Yeah. But before you go off on how Evil McDoonald's is, let
me point out they're one of the few places I can get decent
portions. In higher class places if you want a hamburger you
get a 6 to 8 ouncer for corresponding prices. I'm not into
eating that much. I go for the fast food where 1/4 is still
considered a good size.
You should really look at the offerings at Carl's Jr.
Mmmm. Six Dollar Burger...
A Six Dollar Burger is precisely what I do NOT want!!!!!

I am a little old lady, dammit, not a 7-foot 300 pound football
player!!!!
And that rant sounds a lot like one my mom delivered awhile back,
when she was still in her 50s. :) So she figured out how to get
what she wanted at various places, and avoided the ones where she
couldn't -- or took home 1/2 to 2/3 of the food served.
Nick and I just got back from lunch at Armadillo Willy's, a rib joint
here in Silicon Valley, where we always order the Kids' Ribs plate --
a reasonable amount of food for a reasonable price. Not only do they
allow us non-kids to order the kid-sized portion, they throw in an
adult-sized drink for free because they like us.
