EL D,

I had never been to a sizzler either, but joked all the time about how awesome sizzler was, like friend would ask me to help him move and id be like "you taken me to sizzler afterwards right?".

I went to a sizzler finally.

it was epically ****ing gross.

Tell Evan I said hi!

I use to work for red lobster for 3 years as there certified grill master (head cook). There endless shrimp promotion was the worst of the year for employees for sure. There food taste good but it is very very fatty bad frozen junk. Ask to see the sheet with the calories and fat content you'll be surprised. I've seen some of the most gross people stuff there fat mouths with the endless shrimp. Just cause you can eat as much as you want. Dosent mean you should put 20-50k of calories in your body. I swear those numbers are true any way I pride myself on being healthy and have been surprised what people put on there mouth cause its cheap.

I'm looking at the nutrition facts. All the shrimp portions of the endless shrimp are between 170-260 cals besides the alfredo one which is 600 (not sure if this includes the pasta, probably does). So you'd need to literally eat thousands of shrimp to reach 20-50k calories. 50k is a number that seems physically impossible.

I wonder how many shrimp/calories someone could eat if they got to RL at opening and left at closing continuously eating at whatever pace they desired. Does Endless Shrimp have a time constraint?

I wasn't tring to talk bad about rl o enjoyed working there but bottom line there food is junk and everything is smothered in butter its junk food same as micky d's the average person can't eat there with out consuming your entire day of calories unless they ask for certain food off the menu

I just read the rl info guy put up and I swear that's different from two years ago but it still looked bad if you know what your looking at. Look at saturated fats and sodium. That **** is garbage.

What is the Difference between There, Their, and They're?

There indicates a place as in, "I live here not there." It is the opposite of here. Their is the possessive of they, as in "They live there but it isn't their house." Here you want to indicate that the house belongs to them. They're is a contraction of they are, so that to say, "They're over there in their new house" means "They are over at that place in the new house that belongs to them."

grunch

optimal is to convince the waiter to give you as few as possible of each and use round 1 as a gauge for future rounds

So to get hired as head cook at Red Lobster you have to have 3rd grade math and writing skills? Awesome.

Making the argument that a buttered biscuit isn't healthy or at the very least substantive is easy. You don't have to lie about the numbers. Just say the real numbers. When you start claiming that people intake 50,000 calories a day (this would be roughly 17 Bloomin' Onions from Outback) nobody will ever take you seriously. That person would probably explode from Instant Explosive Onset of Type 2 Diabetes. Who knew?
