Putting aside for the moment that this is ridiculous and won't be enacted, it's a good example of my well-meaning-nanny-law hobbyhorse. (This one reminds me of the seatbelt laws. <g>)

What if the fat person is ordering a salad? Or just had a stomach bypass and can't eat more than a few spoons full? Or what if the fat person is a diabetic traveling through the state and could die if he can't eat timely? It may have good intentions and even work for the majority but you could kill some individuals with a law like that.
