Americans have completely skewed ideas about portion size. No other country on earth offers portions as enormous as the ones here. Go anywhere else in the world and order a meal. You'll see the difference. We're conditioned to believe that more equals better. Just look at the endless marketing of fast food; we're constantly encouraged to eat more in order to take advantage of a "bargain." But what kind of a bargain are you getting if you're eating 100 french fries in one sitting just to save a quarter you wouldn't have spent in the first place? And the reality is that Americans are paying for this illogical thinking with their health and their lives.
