She actually only chewed a little bit whilst helping me process the apples from our tree. But it made me think about how portion sizes have changed over the years.

Using a smaller plate is a great way to help manage your portion size. It makes the brain think we’re having more before we’ve even taken a bite.

Do you remember your granny’s plates? I bet it had a pretty Tim on it and you only put food on the centre part. Well compare that to the size of a trendy modern plate with no pattern and no rim. The same portion looks a lot smaller on the latter.
