I just had the Indiana Jones Double Whopper at Burger King last night. It was flippin' sweet.

While there is no doubt food portions have changed over the years; I find it funny that she has to find pictures of extremes to try to make her point somewhat more valid. Burgers now don't necessarily look like that. At least not the one's the general population is consuming. Why not just put a picture of a 'then' burger with a king whopper or something? *shrug*

One slice of bread = a cassette tape? What kind of midget bread is this?...

You are absolutely right.

Portions in restaurants are ridiculous. My Mom and I usually will split something when we have lunch together. And even then, it is usually too much!

The photo that killed me was the popcorn. The "then" picture said it had 5 cups in it. That is more than enough for one person! Then the other one simply said, TUB! LOL. I guess we don't want to know how many cups it had. 15 maybe?

I took the quiz. I did pretty good. The part that I usually messed up on was how much work you would have to do to burn the calories.

On a side note...I have lost 3 pounds this week!

YAY!! Keep it up!

The portions got bigger because we, the fat ass americans, were ordering 3 dinners per person... buying 2 cans of soda at lunch, and a bagel, muffin and roll for breakfast.

We aren't being force fed. This is just the product of supply and demand.

I don't know how it happened, but the fact that you can get a ton more food for an extra .25 is all the incentive we need.
