portion size
How much served
Portion size refers to the amount of food served or consumed in a single eating occasion.
It differs from serving size, which is a standardized measurement used on nutrition labels; portion size is what actually ends up on your plate.
Restaurant portion sizes have grown dramatically over the past few decades.
The term appears frequently in discussions of nutrition, dieting, and obesity, where controlling portion size is often recommended as a strategy for managing caloric intake.
