>Last time in Toronto I went twice to an all-you-can-eat breakfast rest. Every kind of brekky you coulfd think of, and waht does this canuck idiot do? - heaps his plate up with home fries and bacon. Unless he'd the appetite of a post-hibernation bear I doubt he got his money's worth :-)

There was a tavern in Mokrin (a village north of my city) where an "all you can..." attempt nearly bankrupted the house. The guy was selling wine by the hour. You pay a certain amount, and your glass will be regularly full for sixty minutes. If you can drink more, pay for another full hour (no minutes - full hour or nothing). The price was at about one liter per hour, more or less.

The owner just couldn't believe how fast the local drunkards can drink.
