I'm bored. What is the most food you've ever eaten in one meal/one period of time?

The most I've ever eaten was about a year ago at Shula's in Washington D.C., one of the best steak restaurants in the country. I started off with at least a half a basket of bread and about two glasses of sweet tea. I then went on to eat a fairly well-sized Caesar Salad, every last bit of it. For the main course, I had a 32 ounce Ribeye, cooked rare, and ate every last bit of it. I also chugged down about two more glasses of sweet tea. For dessert, I forced a tasty piece of Key Lime Pie down my throat.

I was still full when I went out for Chinese the next night.

I ate an entire large Pizza with sausage and extra cheese, though it took something like 90 minutes so I don’t think it was all ever in my stomach at the same time. It was a friend's birthday party and there was a somewhat ludicrous surplus of food.

I've eaten 7 full plates of crab legs at buffes

I've eaten large pizzas by myself, several times.

I ate two dozen oysters on the half shell, a large bowl of clam chowder, a dozen steamed clams, two soft shelled crab sandwiches, and another half dozen oysters in one sitting at a restaurant in Florida, Crabby Bill's if anyone knows it.

One of my many RL nicknames is "The Grand Boo-ffet", due to my proclivity for eating 7-8 plates at Chinese buffets. Only if the food is really good, though. Found a really good one with Dim-Sum, Sushi, and Allah be praised, Roast Duck!

5 Mongolian Buffet bowls followed by 1 whole chicken and 2 plates of spagehetti...uggghh. Next was the time I ate 3 large pizzas all in the span of 4 hours...

When I was visiting the mountains, in some town there was this place where a huge dish would cost something like $2. It had everything, and I mean EVERYTHING: steak, chicken, fried egg, french fries, fried banana, boiled potato, fried fish, spaguetti, rice, salad... can't remember what else, but there were 5 or 6 more things there. And they were normal-sized servings of each thing, the plate was like one of those where you put the turkey in Xmas.

Anyway, my dad and I were the only ones to order that, and everyone thought we wouldn't finish it. Yet I did. My father did not, I think he only ate 1/3 of his own... so I ended up eating his too

EDIT: others ordered more delicate stuff like fried guinea pig. I normally don't find it very filling tho.

Lets see....one evening I ate half a bag of taquitos (bag holds 60 total). Another time I ate a 50oz ribeye (which was VERY tender, and the majority of the fat was tripped off) which came with a baked potato half the size of a standard football and a tall glass of lemonade to drink.

Both times, I paid for it dearly.

I'm a judge every year at a local BBQ contest, and they warn us that if we eat all of everything we sample, we will have consumed a minimum of 2 pounds of meat. I learned the hard way that they're not kidding. Now I just nibble on the chicken, brisket, and sausage, saving ample room for the RIBS!!
