  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Food, Agriculture, and Land Use Smaller Portions
    While dishing food out, we tend to load our plates with more than we need. Using smaller plates helps to mitigate this. Aside from the environmental benefits, what other benefits might come from eating/serving smaller portions?

    Small portions on smaller plates means that you do not mindlessly overeat which reduces GI issues and can help to curb weight gain through excessive calories.
