The Diet Guy
Oh my word portion control in America is literally out of control!
Having spent the past 3 weeks in the states in is phenomenal what you get and a real concern.
I went to Perkins for breakfast and ordered a jalapeno omellete (sp!) as I love them and it arrived, it is made with 8 eggs (yes 8!) and with a plate of hash browns on the site and free of charge (ready for this!!) you get 3 buttermilk pancakes (hand sized) and a mammoth muffin (huge thing!). And it was only 5 dollars (about £2.50)
My little one had a city slicker which was designed for kids, it had 2 fried eggs, three sausages, 3 bits of bacon and a load of hash browns, after he had finished they gave him a 6 inch cookie in a bag to eat in the car, the cost !! some 2 english pounds.
Don't get me wrong the food tasted great but out of control portion sizes and prices like that kinds of explains why there are so many big people over there, I have to say I did notice this year that so many americans are bigger than us, and it is the whole family and not just one or two members.
