Large Soda Cups

[Yeti]

I was in a big hurry yesterday and very hungry. I decided to go in McDonalds which I have to add is very rare. I ordered a meal and they asked if I wanted a large. I was hungry so I said sure why not. They handed me the large soda cup that looked like a huge flower vase. The makers of this cup should be commended for ingenuity or something. You could swim in this cup but in their infinite wisdom they made the bottom of the cup very narrow. It actually fit in my car's cupholder. So I was driving down the road and it felt like I was driving the Atlantic Ocean around town but instead of salt in the sea it was a huge amounts of sugar. The McDonalds large cup of soda is a sight to behold and I had to chuckle that they manufactured it to fit in all cupholders.

Yea, same here, the size of the drink is amazing same thing at the movie it is pretty ironic, the large popcorn is a fucking bucket.

Anyway, over consumption , eat more, buy more, shit more, get sick more....all this make the capitalist system work perfectly.

That said, i banned Mcdonald long time ago, they are one of the symbol of this fucked society.

Last night I filled it with water and gave my 1 year old son a bath in the cup. I was thinking of buying another cup today, digging a hole in the yard and installing an inground swimming pool.

reminds me of that bill hicks routine, when he visited tennessee - (i think ive typed this out before, or i just have deja vu)

bill: man, the coffee these truckstops have....

bill: can i get a coffee?

truckstop guy: sure, you want the 32oz or the large? *sniff*

bill: well shit, how bigs that large?

truckstop guy: you best pull your truck round back, ima start up that pump..

supersize me. :rolleyes:

someone had to say it. :o



i can't even finish a "tall" latte from starbucks. that's like a bucket... well, one for fairies at least.

[abcdefz]

How big is the "tall" over there? Here, it's the smallest one. Maybe 10 ounces...?

[venusvenus123]

yes, it's the smallest. i can't imagine a 20oz cup :( ...that's a pint of milk!

i can finish a tall, but i usually find there's a couple of mouthfuls left over.... probably because i find their coffee too weak.

Haha. Yeah, portion sizes are out of control. I've actually been pretty broke lately and eating less and I think I've been able to permanently change my eating habits. I am now satisfied with a lot less than I used to be.

[TurdBerglar]

20oz is like the normal size of a bottle of soda you'd get from a vending machine

[ET]

1 can = 12oz.
