I think the Kitchen Sink was invented over a 100 years ago by an Ice Cream Parlor in The Bronx called Jahn's. There is a Wikipedia Article about it. I remember my family going to one in Brooklyn in the 1940's, and that in the mid-50's one opened up only eight blocks from where I lived in Jackson Heights. That is the only one which still exists.

And for an interesting meal for at least four people, try the Roman Orgy at The Magic Time Machine in San Antonio.

Not at Disneyland. Teacups at DL are outside. No sprinklers other than the flowerbeds.

Reminds me of another Farrell's item: The Pig's Trough. A double-sized banana split. Not sure if they still do it, but back when I was a child, if one person could eat the whole thing, they got a special ribbon commemorating their achievement.

I ate a whole "Sandpail" when I was at blizzard beach last month. It comes in a kids sand pail with the little shovel. Its got soft serve vanilla,chocolate, waffle cone pieces,carmel, hot fudge,strawberry sauce, mickey sprinkles,oreo crumbs a ton of whipped cream (the only real whipped cream comes from cows that are whipped) . It was about 90 degrees that day and it started to melt fast. I used a spoon but I saw others using the shovel (pigs).

Finished it in a bought 20 minutes then laid out like a beached whale until the sugar kicked in. I got so obnoxous my family refused to aknowledge me on the bus ride back to Kidani.
