>I was offered desert and chose a “roasted pecan ice cream ball... smothered in chocolate sauce”. The waiter said that was a good choice, then asked if I wanted it “volleyball, softball or baseball sized”
A volleyball is about 20cm in diameter. Not even as a child could I have eaten that much ice cream. At least not without doing like the Ancient Romans.
- syntheticnature 11y ago...golf ball sized sounds closer to my preference.
- masklinn 11y agoGolf ball seems a bit on the small size, but tennis ball is way too big. Maybe snooker balls? Looks about halfway between one and the other diameter-wise.
- Nicholas_C 11y agoRacquetball sized would be perfect.
- knodi123 11y ago> At least not without doing like the Ancient Romans. That's actually an urban legend based on a mistranslation. The term "vomitorium" just means "exit corridor"; a room which "vomits" people out into the street. They did not have dedicated barfing rooms in their homes, nor was barfing a routine part of their lives.
