The #3 Chick-Fil-A combo meal: it's the closest approximation Mainstream Mass Quantity Food can get to the hurried lunch order Buford T. Justice makes at a diner in a little Burt Reynolds tribute documentary called Smokey & The Bandit.
The scene:
Reynolds sits at the counter of a truck stop diner, waiting for his to-go order.
How much I owe you m'am? he asks.
Dollarn AHalf, she answers.
[Burt slides her some cash - likely a $100 bill.]
Keep the change, he says.
His nemesis, played by the eternal Jackie Gleason, strides into the joint and belches out what he wants to eat:
"Lemme have a diablo sammich, a Dr. Peppah and make it fast I'm in a got-d@m hurry!!"
It doesn't hurt that Gleason punctuates the scene by muttering "Nice Ass."
