Maybe it's because I've been noticing how big portions are getting these days. I get a medium value meal at Burger King, and I get handed a cup that used to be Large when I was young, and now the Large cups are King sized... What the hell are they feeding us I wonder? I hear in Europe and Asia, portions are much smaller and reasonable. I think that's where I need to go, cause I can't eat like the rest of these Americans...
Back to the popcorn though, this bag (grab your ruler) was about 8 inches wide, 8 inches deep, 12 inches tall... Now for me that's just too much damn popcorn for one person, maybe a bit much for two people too unless they are just that hungry. So the fact I corner-eyed these people eating through two of them hoes, just made me wonder why we do it? Why in America is it ok to over-feed ourselves with portions meant for non-domesticated animals, yet everywhere else I hear people remember how big the human stomach really is? I can't do it yo... maybe I'm not American enough, but I'll be damned if I end up like Hansel & Gretel when the world ends in 2012 and we need a food source.
