Talk:Serving size

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I love how a normal bowl of cereal or ice cream is like 8 servings. Who came up with this thing?

I know. It's ridiculous, right? I was just looking it up myself. I always thought it didn't reflect reality, now i know that's a fact. The book "overcoming anorexia nervosa" talks about a portions system, where you have 15 a day, and gives examples, most of them are about 70-75 calories each. Personally I say that's a portion, and 15 plus separate protein in some meals makes up what I would consider a proper diet. Maybe I should write an article based on the section in the book.--90.213.175.101 (talk) 20:01, 19 May 2008 (UTC)
