Learn self control fatty. The big packets do seem like a little much but just like the Mars bars you don't have to eat everything which is in the packet in the same day.
Could always toddle elsewhere which isn't trying to upsell or bring your own if temptation becomes too much to bear. Portion control is key, that and keeping your paws out of the packet.
I don't want such a large one

There's a certain amount of pressure from Government about snack sizes - so they got round the problem of "king size" by making them slightly bigger and branding them as "share size".
I'm the same though. I will eat a thing until its finished.
I do object to the meddling in booze units though - the Department for Health want pints of beer to be available in 3/4 pint sizes - which, I'm sorry, is a lot of nonsense.

Some smarties cookies I bought from Tesco are labelled "Great for all the family" and contains six cookies. I have just finished the lot. Greedy, huh!Gavin Scott wrote:There's a certain amount of pressure from Government about snack sizes - so they got round the problem of "king size" by making them slightly bigger and branding them as "share size"
As an aside, according to reports in Brand Republic today, Cadbury are to include the warning "Contains Milk" on the packaging for 'Dairy Milk'.nodnirG kraM wrote:Any large bar of Dairy Milk will now suggest it's "great for sharing"...
If you make sure you're only with people who are lactose intolerant when you open it then you can't be blamed for not sharing!

Living alone I've found it very difficult to cook proper portion sizes for just one and frequently cook too much. Well, it would be a shame for it to go to waste...
