Theorists, what you are about to see is from the Food Theory vault. It is an episode that was almost never aired, due to the events of last year. Remember buffets? The all you can eat experience of piling your plate so high with crab legs, various meat, and desserts? I wanted to figure out how to get the best bang for your buck at ANY buffet. I did the research, live and in person before everything shut down. The buffet we went to does not even EXIST anymore! Yet,I knew the knowledge we gained was worth sharing so that you too could beat the buffet.

I've had several occasions where the staff looked in disgust as I stacked my plate with 50-60 pieces of sushi (which I always finish) and have once had a hostess suggest other food options when she realized that I was only going to ask for sushi rolls, and I firmly declined and ate 11 rolls total.

@@gelatinousandfree8133 Switching from regular soda TO diet soda, assuming you don't compensate elsewhere ("I'm drinking diet soda, so getting a 20-piece nugget instead of 12-piece would be fine"), you will lose weight over time. However, diet soda opens most people up to a lot of dieting traps, and people that drink diet soda that never really drank normal soda are much more likely to gain weight than people that don't drink soda at all.

No it makes u gain weight because it has the same amount of sugar
@mr.someoneudontkno698 Рік тому
I believe it being the same amount of sugar that is a false generalization of all 'zero sugar/diet' drinks. Its keeping note of ingredients and what it converts to in the body. A good amount of them do not have sugars in the sense of normal sodas. I have lost plenty weight substituting it from the high fructose loaded sodas I loaded on as a teen. At the end of the day everyone should be aware of whats in what they drink or eat.

My family went for Mother's Day Brunch Buffet every year, and we definitely had a system. The most important part was a scouting mission. That's when you went up for the first time, not to fill your plate, but to see what was there, and report your findings to the rest of the table. On that scout trip, you would also grab small portions of a lot of different things. Then, once you knew what was good, you could get bigger helpings of those specific things.

Something about this theory, especually because of bringing up "the satiety index" makes me want to see Matpat tackle what should be the best diet to lose weight using foods that give plenty of nutrients and not feeling like you need to eat more.

I was actually the "meat bouncer" (actually a specialty cook) for 4 years... There wasn't any boss telling me to do or don't do.. anything. You can come and get as much meat as you want, at the end of the day, we weren't thinking about you at all, also we weren't allowed to refuse the customer of another slice. I actually used to pre-slice them so anyone could have as much as they want. My boss never told me I wasn't allowed to do it. I worked at a local buffet though, this might not be the same elsewhere, but I actually enjoyed when people came to my specialty bar because I am the one who cooked the steaks and ribs and I always got compliments for my cooking which made me smile instead of being overbearingly grumpy like most of all my coworkers there.
@thelonelywoodstock674 Рік тому
My dad was a "meat bouncer" as well (carving station, cook 1) at a casino buffet. He was told give a person a certain amount initially but if they asked for more, then give them more. He'd also precut the meat and was only discouraged by a higher up who just didn't like him. My dad and his coworkers also didn't think much of people coming to the station. I only remember one time he mentioned a person getting a crap ton of food and he was just impressed by how much they could pack away. Other than that, people were mentioned cause they were rude.

When my dad's brother was a kid, his parents didn't like taking him to buffets. The reason for this was that my uncle was a typical geek, complete with the thick-framed glasses with tape above the nose and dress shirts with ink stains on the pockets. He developed a formula to "make sure he got his money's worth" at the buffet, but overestimated the capacity of his own stomach. The result was that he would eat until he couldn't keep the food down. He also stubbornly refused to accept the fact that his "perfect equation" had this fatal flaw to it, and got sick every time he went to an all you can eat buffet.

As someone who works in retail: don't ever feel weird about going to a store several times. We don't remember. Sure if you speak to the cashier a lot, he'll possibly remember your face, but probably only if your a regular customer. Can't te you how many times i had people buy something to immediately notice they forgot something and be back at the register in 2 minutes and by the time they are back it's like I've never met them. Retail workers don't care.

One time in 1986 at the now-defunct King's Table Buffet in Moscow, Idaho, I visibly ate so much (because instead of making endless trips, I would get all that I could eat at once, because i knew how much I could eat) that the restaurant manager actually came to my table and asked me to put some of the dishes back. As that sounded like a health code violation - and because I was, you know, hungry - I just stared at him incredulously until he sheepishly walked away. It's one of the highlights of my entire life.

It doesn't. Love isnt a substance it's connections and responses in your brain. Love could, however, affect the way the chef cooks (although by very little). And via human psychology, if the customer knows (or thinks they know) that the person who cooked their food 'cooked it with love' then they are more likely to enjoy it i suppose.

Well here in germany we usually only have chinese all you can eat and it's often stuffed with 20 variants of rice and noodle dishes, veggy sushi and fried chicken waste. The expensive duck meat is very limited and the serving container is also stuffed with lots of bean sprouts and veggies. At the end you pay 15-40€ (depending on the restaurant and day/time) for essentially just really cheap food. When we go to our local asian gourmet temple I always try to only take a little of the noddles and lots of the expensive meats topped with some sauce so it goes down better. After those feasts it's usually enough of food for the next 2 days.
