I guess so, but the size of some of those platters and bowls at WF is pretty huge, and they always look full. I wonder how much stuff they throw out or otherwise get rid of at the end of the day. (Hmm,...do they have any 8:45 p.m. specials??) The only problem I have w/ WF salads is that they don't cook their beans enough for my tastes. Otherwise, their prepared foods are a real treat. C |
