Yesterday, I went out to eat with my grandmother. When they brought the food it was HEAPED on the plate. If I were to eat that plate, I would have been full for a whole day or more! Plus the cornbread and vegetables and sauces had their own plates! We live in a fast world and eating out happen often for me. I had to ask for a clean plate and served myself a reasonable portion. Then I took the 3 to 4 extra portions home. NO wonder we are getting fatter!

Very good observation. Beside huge plates we are bombarded with all different kind of food ads. Companies invest a lot of many to sell there product and make you it even if you are not hungry. I try to not watch, read or listen to ads for food or restaurants.
