How to Put Together a Garbage Plate

From John Mitzewich, former About.com Guide

Looks aside, it was actually quite tasty. It reminded me of being at the company picnic, and you don't want to seem like a hog and keep going up the the buffet table, so you pile as much food as will fit on your plate. It was kind of like that. I was determined to beat the garbage plate and finish the whole thing. I think the counter people were placing side bets.
