Looks like it will take a few weeks to verify whether yesterday’s Holmes County Amish Country eat-a-thon broke any records.

I try to avoid buffets if I can.  The willpower required to avoid eating some of everything seems to take away from my enjoyment of the food itself.

It’s no secret that overeating and sedentary lifestyles are chief causes of obesity.  Among the Amish it is a rarity, even though anyone who’s tried it can tell you typical Amish dishes definitely ain’t low fat.
