REFLECTION QUESTION
Food

Fun fact: Your brain and stomach register feelings of fullness after about 20 minutes of eating. While dishing food out, we tend to load our plates with more than we need. Using smaller plates helps to mitigate this. Aside from the environmental benefits, what other benefits might come out of eating smaller portions?

Seeing the food laid out on a smaller plate with smaller portions can trick your brain into thinking it's more food which will result in you feeling more full quicker.
