So I went to Burger King drive-thru today for a quickie lunch. Ordered a #1 combo as I was thinking I should be getting a kiddie meal instead. But I was really hungry. I drove around to the window and paid my $6.03 (boy, the prices have gone up since I was last there). The guy hands me my
vat cup of Diet Coke. Good lord! I wasn't sure it would even fit in the cup holder! Apparently I said that out loud, because he cheerfully said the King size is the new large. Thank goodness it was diet! If I had drunk that amount with real sugar (the high fructose variety), I would have been in a diabetic coma! I came home and measured the amount and it was a full 40 ounces.
Forty ounces! And not only was the drink gorilla-sized, but also the fries would have fed a family of four. I ate about half the food and brought the rest home to the dog and chickens. The drink lasted me the rest of the day. I don't think I'll be going back to BK anytime soon.
On a nicer note, here is another of my favorite ornaments and I've also added a few to the sidebar. Hope you enjoy!
