That's an excellent question Fred...
Being 6-4" and 147 pounds with a metabolism so high I can burn a meal off before even sitting down to eat it, one might correctly guess that I like to eat.
When I was in High School I once ate 42 Krispy Kreme donuts in 10 hours and lost 2 pounds.
Freshman year i ate a KFC family meal one night for dinner (6 pieces of chicken, mashed potatoes and gravy, 4 corn on the cobs, cole slaw, 4 krispy strips and a chocolate cake. I gained one pound.
Senior year I ate 20 pancakes at an All-You-Can-Eat promotion at IHOP (after having breakfast at home an hour earlier before learning my family was going).
Another night in Phoenix they scored more than 100 points so each ticket was good for two free tacos at Jack in the Box. I scooped up 15 tickets and scored 30 tacos in the drive through (boy were they pissed) and ate each and every one of them when I got back.
So again...when your metabolism is so high you have many favorites.
Having lived in China since February though I am craving a LOT of stuff and you will conveniently find them in the following list...
1. Donuts- I absolutely love donuts. They are my number one weakness. When I see donuts I go nuts.
2. Nachos - Few things are more appealing to a hungry man than a football game on and a huge stack of nachos with cheese.
3. A Huge Steak - Enough said.
4. Cheeseburger - No such thing as that here.
5. Mexican Food - They always give your your moneys worth. Free chips...loaded burritos...you know you got your money's worth when you limp out of the restaurant on the way to your car.
6. Ice Cream - Another major weakness of mine.
7. A Genuine American Thanksgiving Meal - turkey, ham, mashed potatoes and heavy gravy, corn, peas, all that good stuff...
8. A Real American Barbeque- This is what men do best. We are naturally good at taking meat and setting it on fire. I also think men like this because for the most part, men prefer to eat with their bare-hands while standing up. Women have matured and civilized us to the point where we barely eat anything barehanded anymore but the barbeque is our one escape to grill and to eat the way we're supposed to eat.
When we return to the States in January someone's going to have to keep me under control. Sooner or later my metabolism won't be so high and I'll gain a ton of weight.
But mostly donuts.
