Olives for Breakfast, Lunch and Tea

The All Inclusive Hotel show up everyone's peculiar issues with food.  There's too much choice for most human beings.  Do you take a little bit of everything, or lots of just one thing?  The food is also available pretty much all day.  There might be an hour when there is no food available and you feel yourself start to panic.  People stuff fruit in their pockets for later, pastries in their bag to take home to their friends and as much food into their mouths as they can fit.

I've seen some very odd food combinations.  I saw someone with 6 boiled eggs on their plate for breakfast and someone else with a fried egg, a spinach leaf and 4 lemon wedges for lunch.  The skinny Russian girls have a lettuce leaf, while their scary muscle-bound boyfriends tuck into a mound of food.  The children seem to take more than they can eat.  The adults do too but they are too afraid not to eat it.  I seem to have eaten Olives at every meal.  Tomorrow, I am going to eat normally and admire the wonderful melon-art.
