Birthday party/ amount of food question

DDs birthday party is coming up. We are having it at 12:00 and there will be 10 kids, 40 adults. I am making pasta salad, garden salad, cole slaw, and a tomato and cucumber salad. I want to order some specialty heroes as well as an American hero. How many feet should I get? I was thinking around 6-8 ft? Should I get anything else?

With 40 adults I'd get at least 2 six foot heros given that the heros are the main part of the meal. Better to have too much, then too little.

I also would get at least 2 6 feet heros. I have had parties with similar amounts of people (less children) and had 2 heros along with other food. Its lunch so heros are fine but I think you need more than 6-8 feet.

i would maybe get something small that is more kid friendly. I don't know the age of the kids but I am thinking that most may not eat what you are offering. ( I know my kid wouldn't but she is also is very limited on what she eats)
