This is another thing that pisses me off, and not just from fatties, but in general.

There are all these videos on Youtube of "eAtInG tHE sErVinG sIze fOr a DaY" which consist of people calling what are often quite reasonable portions, 'child-sized.' Portion distortion is real, especially among fats. I always see them moaning about cereal serving sizes. Honestly, the cereal serving size isn't that bad. I generally eat about the serving size, give or take a little depending on how hungry I am. But, when your normal serving comes out of a mixing bowl, I suppose everything is "child-sized".

And, suprise, suprise! This image is smaller than the serving size for pasta.

Also the cereal is always coco puffs or fruit loops. Never Cheerios! Personally I like to mix a bit of Cheerios with coconut flakes, walnuts to give it some balance with protein & fats. If I'm feeling decadent I throw in a few dark chocolate baking chips.

Oh, that sounds nice! I'll often have bran (the cold, crunchy type) with greek yoghurt, berries, and occasionally some cashews too, if I need the fat.

But obviously we haven't truly experienced cereal since we don't eat a mixing bowl of Lucky Charms every morning!
