French eat till they are full, Americans eat till the plate is empty. Singaporeans?
I was reading this article and they did a survey on how come the French, with the rich food such as cheese and wine, are still healthier as compared with the Americans.
Well, the study said the above. The French will eat till they are full only, then they stop. This is different from the Americans who will only stop when the plate is empty. Notice how big portion some of the food from America are? They can feed you for a few meals.
I wonder how Singapore fares in this survey. You tell me, do you finish the food on the plate, or do you eat till you are full?
For me, I tend to fill my plate with the amount I know I will be full, so that solves the problem.
When I was in Australia, the packet of Fish and Chips can last me 2 meals or 3 if I save the chips. The fried rice from the restaurant can feed 2 to 3 people.
