2pints-mate 0 Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 Just read this http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/health/4965034.stm One of the study's authors, James Smith of Rand, said: "You don't expect the health of middle-aged people in these two countries to be too different, but we found that the English are a lot healthier than the Americans." I'm sure if they cut the portions down it would make a start. I was pretty shocked to see the amount of food on a plate when I went (and I was shocked that I was shocked!)

bobby12 0 Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 Yes I remember ordering a medium Cafe Latte in some airport, think it was LAX, and being given this gigantuan plastic cup with about 2 litres of coffee in it. I could barely carry it. Link to post Share on other sites
big-will 7 Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 I remember my parents telling me that they learnt to order 1 coffee and shared it, same with quite a lot of food orders. Link to post Share on other sites
