I don’t even think I could have devoured that thing when I was 11, complete with a metabolism that got me banned from four separate restaurants, allegedly “all-you-can-eat” joints that got nervous when the skinny white kid went up for an eleventh helping of the entire Cantonese section. I once ate like I was supplying fuel for multiple quantum singularities, and never gained a pound.
This would have given me pause. And now it is nothing but a fond what-if scenario.
