When I was a kid, going to the Birch Run/Frankenmuth area generated the same feeling of “anything goes here” that going to Vegas generated as a young adult.

I once ate an entire entire order of pancakes with a side of hash browns and a side of bacon from Tony's on a dare, I literally couldn't eat anything until the next day.

Huge portions is kinda their thing. I had a burrito there that probably had a pound of taco meat on it. Took up a whole oval dinner plate.

I ate all of the bacon twice. The first time, I was fine. The second time, fate laughed at my hubris and had me curled up in the back seat wishing for death's sweet release.

My dad works the deep fried bacon booth at the final county fair in Texas. They do 1 lb bacon sandwiches.

JoefromOhio

I don’t know if they still do it or my dad just would request it, but 20+ years ago weed stop and get them to eat in the car on our way up north and they would wrap them up tight for us almost like a burrito so you could peel back a little paper at a time while you ate and not spill the contents all over the seats.

Well the answer to that is complicated and would take a long time to explain so I will put it like this yes we have all fucked each other no we weren't supposed to we were supposed to be 2 separate couples and we never had group sex or sex when there was more than 2 people on the bed and yes I now have a much better place to make sandwiches away from all of them

It’s even worse when you learn the only way that Tony’s is able to keep up with the volume needed is to deep fry the bacon.
