Restaurant Portion Sizes and All You Can Eat Buffets

[Klingers]

I'll admit I've never been to the states myself, but just about every friend I know who has told me that food portions in the states compared to here in Australia are monstrously huge.

Even a small is equivalent to one of our mediums.

well idk about regular restaurants, but in fast food ones the portions have gotten significantly larger. i order a small coke & i get what used to be a medium ~10 yrs ago.

Thats only because you force yourself to only eat 1500 cal a day. If you ate what you liked and ate until you felt good and satisfied you would probably eat 4000 to 5000 calories. We all die some day, why not enjoy the days we have left?

No, I literally eat what I want and it ends up being 1500 or so. I'm generally not hungry, and a small lunch will fill me up quick.

If you eat what you like and that requires 4000-5000kcal, you're either a body builder, or you're addicted to food. I mean, cocaine is fun as hell, why not go snort like 7 grams. Sure, you'll probably have a heart attack, but we all die some day.
