If you like adding up really fast try to count how many eateries you pass as you leave Dallas/Fort Worth Airport. As GG has probably found you give up after quarter of a mile!

My head office is just north of Dallas and I've been dragged over there three times now. The place is flat, featureless and has no tourist attractions that I've ever found, so all you are left with is shopping and eating. Some of my US colleagues are enormous

Houston isn't the fattest city in the US for no reason......everything in America is supersized and Texans like everything of theirs to be even bigger!

After all, "It's like a whole other country"!

My new head office is in Houston (we got taken over by HP) but hopefully I won't ever have to go there!!!

I was shocked at the waste first time I went over. You get so much food it's ridiculous - after the enormous starter (and the salad you didn't ask for) you have no room left for the steak and mountain of fries. After a few days you get wise to it and skip everything else just to enjoy the main course (which I was never able to actually finish).

It took literally minutes before this started appearing on screens and notice boards all over the place when we heard about the takeover.

**THREAD RELEVANT CONTENT!!**

Of course adding some sauce would make some of that vomit-inducing food in the OP a bit more bearable. Just.
