Believe me, I try to not eat it all, but it doesn’t always work out for me. The other night we went to a local Italian place that serves famously huge portions. I know that I shouldn’t eat the garlic knots that accompany the drinks, but I just do. I know that I shouldn’t eat the whole chicken parm — that which covers an entire 11" plate — but, I did. I know that I really don’t need the accompanying pasta, and fortunately, the sauce was a little off for my tastes, and I put it aside. It is a good thing that I am not a heavy drinker or much of a dessert guy (special occasions or something worth having only!), or I would be HUGE!
