Red Lobster is amazing..We don't have them here in the UK, but when we went to the US. Wow. Portions are quadruple the size of things here. :S

But I have to agree with nwbevk, fish you've caught yourself are always the best.

Ah, I agree as well! I unfortunately can't fish, but when my friends catch a lot then I often get some of the fish becasue they can't eat so much themselves and it's a pity to freeze such fine fish.

When I was in America recently I went into McDonald's (sadly it was that or no food for a while...) and I asked for a large french fries...what I recived was triple the size of what we get here in Australia.

Hah! I love situations like that. Not because it makes me think \"Mmm..Food\"..But because I end up just laughing at how hilariously large everything is. It's enough to turn an English person mental I say. With us being used to such small portions.

I remember watching 'Man vs Food' and the presenter guy was on about how pork chops from where he comes from are a third of the size of the pork chop he was about to take on, or something along those lines. I was thinking..If you think that's small? Our pork chops are a quarter of the size that you consider small! And near double the price too.

My husband likes that show. I watch it sometimes, depending on what he's eating... some of it just turns my stomach to watch though. And you're right, even the things he considers a \"small portion\" are still pretty big.

My brother and father love it..My mother and I - Not so much. It makes me feel quite ill watching it sometimes, particularly when the guy's eating stuff that's oozing with cheese. >.< My brother was bored one day and recreated a mini-version of a massive melted cheese sandwich (which had more cheese than bread)..Argh..
