Another difference between Europe and the US. In Europe they actually give you portions that are the size for a normal human being. You can physically finish something you order in a restaurant. You can even order more than one course. It's so strange. For example. We went to a McDonalds in Budapest. My aunt and I both got a McFlurry, and they were quite a bit smaller than they are in the US. They probaby had one cup of ice cream, and candy. And that's reasonabe. Whereas in the US, you get probably 2 cups or more. Last night we went to a place called Brewsters for desert. It's alot like the Pittsburgh equivalent of a Dairy Queen. I got what was called a blast(blizzard). I got the smallest size you could, and got probably three cups worth of ice cream and candy. I couldn't believe it. I could hardly finish it, by putting half in the freezer and eating it tonight as well. It's crazy. I now understand why American has the weight problem it does. And I'm out.
