I don't want this to come across as insensitive or as mockery or ridicule. I was genuinely just very surprised by what I saw.
When my wife and I were seated, a very small skinny woman by herself had two literal mountains of fried chicken covered in cheese. She also had a plate of pasta. As time went on, the plates of pasta she ate seemed innumerable. I was trying not to gawk, but my curiosity kept me glancing occasionally. There were at least a dozen huge piles of pasta. She just kept getting more. There was also a pile of at least 20-30 emptied gum syrup cups. I thought she was putting them in her drinks, but then I that she was putting them onto her pasta. The gum syrup.
She wasn't recording herself. She wasn't using her phone at all. She just sat there. Eating more than I've ever seen anyone eat. I was impressed at first. I'd seen people eating fairly large portions by themselves at Shakey's before. But this was next level. At some point I started feeling like something was off. But eventually she finished her two hours and left. The whole thing of it is none of my business and I think it is tactless to make assumptions about a stranger's life. But of course I couldn't help but wonder. It was incredibly unusual behavior.
Idk why I just felt like sharing. Has anyone seen something like this before?
