Big Boy Bamboo Bodacious Big and Tall Blog!

Not all of you are lucky enough to have a home base in Las Vegas. That's okay. We'll show you around though the magic of the internet. Welcome to the Big Boy Bamboo Warehouse! Okay, that's not a picture of a warehouse... But it was taken inside the warehouse, so it counts. Hey, warehouses are ugly.

Unapologetic is the way we live here at Big Boy Bamboo. It means we don't tiptoe around the issue, and we treat big guys with respect. The way the fashion industry treats extended sizes is disgusting, and plus-size men get the worst of it. We're thrilled people are recognizing that bodies come in all shapes & sizes.

These pick up lines start out being cute and funny, transition into risqué and end up with some pretty rude and embarrassing pickup lines.

As of his last weigh-in in April 2016, Eric Hites weighed 480 pounds. That's pretty impressive when you consider that he started at 567.

And he's riding a bicycle across the country.

Yeah, we raised an eyebrow, too. But check this out:

Fat Guy Across America is about more than weight loss and fitness.

It's about being the underdog that rises to the top, and, more importantly, it's about <love

There is no joy on earth like the joy of biting into one of the best chili dogs ever cooked by humans. Chili dogs are one of the crowning achievements of humanity, but not all dogs are created equal. As an Official Fat Panda and chili dog connoisseur, I'm opinionated in all matters of dogs and chili, and I'm here to tell you where to get the 10 best chili dogs you'll ever eat. You're welcome! 

Maybe there's some truth in the idea that we're too dependent on convenient technologies, but let's be honest: Some things are just better online. In this post, Paunch Panda, Big Boy Bamboo's Official Fat Panda, looks at some of the best you can find online.

Maybe the advertising world doesn't recognize it, and maybe you don't always feel that way, but it's the truth.

Here's to the fat guys like you that are out there every day, proving how badass we can really be. This post is dedicated to you.

If big guys didn't have an awesome sense of humor, we could never get away with writing blog posts like this one.

Big Boy Bamboo treats large men with respect - whether you call yourself fat or not - and that means we don't sugarcoat. We don't tell white lies to protect your delicate feelings, and we don't constantly preach "body acceptance" at you, because nobody needs to tell a big dude that it's okay to be himself.

Cheap, delicious, all-you-can-eat food is becoming more of a rarity as the best gourmet eateries now come at premium prices, so when you go to a restaurant that offers an extensive array of all-you-can-stuff-into-your-face options, strategy is important. But before we get into the details, there are a few things you should know about the buffet business.

If anyone ever tries to say that there's no such thing as big guys with game, just shake your head and walk away. Plus size dudes can be sexy as hell. And we have proof.
