Serving Set
Sunday, October 17th, 2010Should restaurants, cafes and TV food programmes etc set a trend for serving smaller portions?
The large portions and plates surely go towards encouraging overeating and the health problems that follow.
When I watch TV I'm amazed at the size of the meals or portions served up. In 3 or 4 course meals I don't think I'd make it past some of the starters.
I agree with you also. I think it is primarily the TV chefs that need to lead the way as more and more people are now cutting costs, and are cooking at home.
Just reading through the questions here I am constantly seeing references to them so people are clearly watching the shows.
I think more education is needed on meal proportions and what is a recommended size so people are aware that a lb of mince, with onions, carrots, peas and potatoes will feed 3-4.
