Another fun comment, movie theaters used to have absolutely gigantic portions (yes, even bigger than now). Cobb Theaters had a soda called "The Cobbster" which was 80oz. It was basically a popcorn bucket full of soda with a straw. And it came with free refills, it was the only size to do so. I imagine that was because only a maniac would actually come back for a refill. I did it once to "get my value", but I couldn't actually drink any more.

I remember see something similar in some movie or tv series. I'm looking for it.

Edit: Didn't find it.
