| Have you ever eaten at a buffet restaurant that served "all the steak you can eat" but over-salted so nobody ate very much? |

Not a steak buffet but I have been to a seafood buffet that was like that. But I only went there once.
I ate there several times (Ryan's) and eventually they must have gotten enough complaints that they quit over-salting it. Or, possibly, a lawyer ate there several times and noticed a pattern and suspected something illegal going on when they were making it so salty it was virtually inedible while the customer was led to believe he could eat and eat until he was stuffed from eating so much.

Maybe I need to break it down just for you.
"Or (this references the previous sentence's phrase, "enough complaints"), possibly (this introduces the upcoming hypothetical), a lawyer ate there several times (at the buffet serving overly salted steak) and noticed a pattern (the steak was overly salted -- resulting in meat which tasted too salty -- since it happened multiple times this constitutes a pattern) and suspected something illegal going on when they ("they" being the restaurant obviously) were making it so salty it was virtually inedible ("it" being the overly salted steak) and while the customer (the reason he [the lawyer] thought it might be something illegal) was led to believe he could eat and eat until he was stuffed from eating so much (of the excessively salted steak).
It made sense when I wrote it. It made sense to 21% of my readers. So, what's your problem with it? Can you word the scenario in an easier to understand fashion?
Hmmm... guess not. :)
I doubt he will. ;)
Evidently you had to have had the experience to really relate.

[2 points] 2 years ago by deleted user ReplySome restaurants call any slab of beef a steak. Of course even a rib roast is really just a bunch of rib eye steaks that haven't been separated, so that is proof a roast is just a very thick steak, right?
No, but that's clever!
