Meal sizes

Recommended Posts

Anyone remember Michael Douglas in Fallen? Know that fast food restaurant scene?

Well I ordered a McChicken and it don't look anything close to the picture. It buffered my growling stomach, but it sure as hell don't look like the picture.

Then I run into this report claiming that Americans are increasing their meal portions at home too.

I'm pretty sure the source must be from the same customers who got midget-sized on their happy meal.

It's my cranky stomach talking here. Sorry.

NO SOUP FOR YOU! ONE YEAR!!

Seriously, dem frikkin' fast food outlets (Mc BK Taco Wendy's) will kill us all, but 'quickly' :P

During RSP season (401K to you 'mericans) I can and have gotten into the fast food culture. This year I have not and will not. I KNOW we have some nutritionists luking out there and I'm SURE they will agree it is as much the FAT content of larger portions that kills us as the extra portion. That "extra $0.29" could be an extra pound a month - or more.

I LOVE to cook and have learned to enjoy the time it tekes to create "cuisine", not just "food" . You could not PAY me to use tinned chicken stock or eat processed ANYTHING. Foodtv is my friend. It 's a great thing to waste a cold Manitoba winter evening cooking up a gallon or 2 of chicken stock (no salt, no fat, many vegetables) to keep you for a month of sauces and soups... or a gallon of beef goulash that freezes into "Stouffers size" Ziplocks just by leaving it outside.

Make your own fast food! Drive past the drive-through!
