There would have to be a generous portion of beef to balance with all of the potatoes though. Yum! All of a sudden I feel like I should be bopped on the forehead and handed a V-8.

Anything that combines mash potatoes, tons of gravy, meat, and some type of dairy (cheese or sour cream) is like heaven in a bowl. Pop me some corn in there with a biscuit or cornbread on the side, and a 32oz sweet tea or Mountain Dew and I'm set. If only the KFC buffet had popcorn chicken. I could make my own, EXTRA SAUCY!
