Funny, but we have the opposite problem. My wife buys a square piece of cake at our store bakery and it serves us either three or four servings depending on how we slice it. The label says it’s one serving.
That’s like the M&M’s package labeled “Sharing size”… There’s barely enough for me. Luckily, I only buy dark chocolate M&M’s, and my wife can’t eat that much chocolate.
HOW TRUE!!! Especially salt and vinegar. . .I’m seriously thinking of ending my “friendship” with the “friend” who introduced me to THOSE wicked things. . .
You go, Frank! I heard once that truth in advertising should require that all potato chip bags be labeled “One serving.” If you aren’t that hungry, get a small bag. If you’re really hungry, get a big bag. They don’t keep well anyway.

Bet you can’t eat just one.
What is worse is when the muffin is 3 servings in one muffin.

It’s like “Family Size” is meant only for a family of one!

Party Size!

I run into that a lot! “Party Size” is the real joke (unless they mean “Party of One”).

hint: serving size is usually computed by number of calories, not by what any real person would probably consume

that is the way everything is- – serving size is a tablespoon.

Skipping past a few facts, Frank? Gotta take into account the “serving size,” as defined by the nutrition label on the package.

Girl Scout Thin Mints boxes say there are more than two servings.
