The fact that some humans can shove an entire large pizza inside themselves is both amazing and terrifying (lemmy.world)

I don't gain weight, but I just can't do it. When I was in high school my parents would always order me my own large pizza, and I would eat all of it except one slice, which I would eat cold the following morning.

Now, I'll still have the appetite sometimes, and I'll order a large. If I'm lucky and very determined, I'll eat half, and then I'm so stuffed I feel sick. I suppose that's a good thing, but there is a certain sense of accomplishment found in dusting a whole pizza yourself.
