Find the largest number

A father and a son buy chicken nuggets at a restaurant.  The father buys boxes of nuggets of 11 pieces each and the son buys boxes of 7 pieces each. What’s the largest number of pieces they cannot buy? (It is the largest combined number of nuggets of their purchases without throwing or eating away any.)
