The Leaning Tower of Grease-a

There is no way that's 1050 slices of bacon.

My package of bacon in my fridge says 16 slices, it's a one pound package. If I divide 1050 slices by 16, that gives me 65.625 pkgs (doesn't it?). If so, that's 65.625 pounds of bacon (ain't it?).

Somebody tell me if that's right. I ain't too mathy.



ETA: Of course, they don't use bacon like we buy in the store...but, still...

Japanese portions are often smaller.

Burger king portions may also be smaller than you're used to.

Also, Japanese culture is anal retentive very precise. If the Japanese burger-maker was told to put 1050 slices on that thing, I'd give it a better than 50% chance that there are exactly 1050 slices.

Whenever I paid for anything with notes, the Japanese shop attendant would hold the notes, give them a special flick so they don't stick together, count them, then turn them over, flick again, and count them again, going the other direction.

Even if I had clearly given them just a single note.

It's kind of Flying Bacon Monster/Dalek bastard child-ish isn't it?

Wouldn't one thousand fifty pcs of bacon make a stack bigger than that?

And their bacon is at least that thick/thin.

yeah but it's not laid precisely one on top of another in a straight tower is it? They're layered, but each layer is several rashers.

Hmmm... in that case we're going to need some tartare sauce...
