    How many times a year do you eat at a buffet?
  • You can actually get kicked out for eating too much at an all-you-can-eat-buffet?! That is false advertising right there.
  • My strategy is to get a little of everything, taste it, then go back for larger portions of what I liked.
  • Was at a Vegas buffet today for brunch. They bring out the crab legs at 10 AM. The guy next to us had two dinner plates piled up half a foot high with crab legs. He finished them, and moved on to another plate of assorted stuff 😅

    My daughter in law absolutely refuses to eat at buffet bars for these many reasons.

    I miss buffets so much. Loved Sweet Tomatoes with their magnificent salad and soup bars. Sure wish they would reopen.
  • When I was a little kid I saw two teenage girls putting hair in the food at a buffet. That was over 30 years ago but to this day I can’t eat at buffet with feeling nauseous.
  • @djbigpean
    I noticed a lot of buffets if not done right, will give you bad case of diarrhea
  • @Grassmpl
    Need a food item to be refilled? I wanna talk to your manager! You'll be hearing from my lawyers.
  • @da1680
    Is it better to go a buffet when place first open or later in afternoon?
  • The people who take all the snow crab legs and drink grape soda are the worst. By the way, they don't tip
  • @fubytv731
    But I always reuse my plate to save water.
  • @MrJPPIZZA
    0:41 when worked at buffet. I HATEd the ones that grab utensil out something else. Instead of waiting whoever scooping to finish.
  • @Anurania
    I would say it's an etiquette rule that you don't go back to the greens section after putting meat on your plate to avoid cross contamination. This can be difficult because that order is unnatural. It feels strange putting olive oil on the plate first and then the gyro meat.
  • If it's all you can eat then I will take some performance enhancing drugs and eat all I can eat simple
  • These rules are just absolutely hap hazard 90seconds in… i love mashed but good lord…. Let me correct this …. Dont act like your buffet people …
  • @RyanK-100
    If you want etiquette, you shouldn't be at a buffet. This is where blue collar people can act blue collar.
