Our kids, who are still young and don't eat a lot, usually share kids' meals. Sometimes the restaurants charge for the extra kids' drinks, but often they don't. Great article!

Mom & Dad didn't have much money back then. I suspected it, but a little kid really doesn't know the difference between having a lot and having very little. All I knew was that this was a super special treat and that if Mom was spending this much time training us to have good manners, and if she was going to have us dress up, it MUST be something else! @Jeff@My Super-Charged Life

We call them "doggie bags" here in the US. I suppose at one time people took them home to feed their dogs. We recently went out to eat and brought home as much food as we ate. It seems that restaurants have a habit of giving far too much food. Hopefully you will get to come to the US to study. What courses or programs are you interested in? @Virtaaj

Sharing is a great idea. My girls usually share a meal and my wife and I have started. Yes, most restaurants DO over-serve portion wise. They could make a lot more money if they reduced their food costs. Doesn't make much sense for them to continue to do this but who knows why? Oh well, maybe that's why their restaurant stocks are doing so poorly. @LP
