That's not the only reason! A good sized meal can be broken up into 2 or 3 if the person has self-control. The combinations of foods eaten together is also a reason, some foods should not be eaten together because they cause a bad interaction.

Restaurants serve large portions b/c the actual cost of the food is low. And people like it when they get more then they can handle it makes then feel they are getting there moneys worth and in turn it makes the customer come back

Because of profit. They feel you will come back if you feel that you get alot for your money. They don't necessarily use the best quality, just give you quantity. Due to this our waistlines are increasing due the increasing demand for profitability. We really should frequent the restaurants which actually do serve a reasonable size portion of food.

Restaurants serve bigger portions to justify for the over priced food they serve to you.
People are overweight because of the lack of self control and poor eating habits/choices, not because of this...the restaurants are not actually shoving it down our throats!!!

Restaurants serve what the public demands. No one forces you to eat everything on your plate. People should have the common sense to stop when full.

In order to impress the customer. So they will come back because they feel they get a lot for their money. Look at the Big Gulp. The trick is eat at home and on smaller plates.

They want you to feel you're getting the money's worth, & not being hungry after you finish. You can always ask the waiter or waitress to give smaller portions & they will advise the cook.

They must be wealthy people. I have found that the more expensive, or exclusive, the smaller the portions.

I guess they don't want to hear anyone complain they didn't get enough food. The portions are so huge they're enough for two meals.
