My Stomach's View On Food


I have never considered myself a picky eater. I will happily and readily eat any dish offered or served to me. Being that I am a seventeen year old boy I considered that to be expected. However, being as it may, I definitely do not look like the kind of person to eat so much. I am 5’ 10” and I tend to be on the lean side because of all the running I do.  When someone new meets me and then sees how I eat, they are shocked at how much I can eat. To give you a better idea of how much I can eat, I will first give a little bit of a background story to better illustrate my appetite.  Around where I attend high school, there is an amazing restaurant to go and get pizza known as Alondra’s Hot Wings (located in the city of Alhambra ). I once ate an almost entire large pizza by myself (because my girlfriend only ate one slice) along with ten wings and I could not wait for seconds. The seconds came eventually when one of my friends ordered an extra dish that she did not touch because of how full she was. And Yes! You Guessed it! That food went to me. As I get older though I do realize that I will not be able to do that forever and get away with it (I am not completely ignorant). This explains my daily moto: “Eat what you can, while you can!”

  2. Adam, you remind me of my younger brother. 11 months younger than I am, and he can still eat whatever he wants whenever he wants. At Thanksgiving last year, he arrived 1 hour after everybody else arrived. Then he proceeded to eat two full plates with turkey, stuffing, vegetables, and potatoes. When he left, he also took home two foil pans of food home with him, which he finished by the end of the week. In high school, he played halfback and linebacker. They called him Tank. Now I know why. By the way, good way to use a story to illustrate the idea. That story sounds sickening and priceless at the same time. Plus your style is starting to improve a lot. Much more conversational style of writing from you. Keep it up. (+10)

    Davidson, elaborate. Tell me more. (+1)
