Hmm, let's see. Wait, I've got it! Don't eat too much!

I question part of your statement. I was born in Florida, spend the first 22
years of my life there, and go back there every two years or so. Where on
earth did you find 'wonderful food' in Florida?

1. You split meals, even when their is a sharing charge.
2. You carry a small collapsible cooler, and fill it with ice at the motel,
put the leftovers in the cooler.
3. Many motels have microwaves in the room. Or carry a metal cup with you,
put the leftovers in the cup, and heat it up on the iron.
