Portion Control
20 years ago, a takeaway coffee would have been water based and in a 200ml polystrofoam cup. Even if you added full cream
milk and a couple of sugars, the most you had was 85 Cals. Scale up to today’s Starbuck’s Grande and you could be taking
in up to 480 Cals depending on your choice of drink.
Potato Chips20 years ago chips came in 30g packs. Today both the 50
and 100g packs are marketed as single serves.
30g = 150 Cals, 50g = 250 Cals, 100g = 500 Cals
