Question:
Just recently I went to Wendy's and I ordered a small drink and a small fry. They gave me a soda that's usually the size of a medium drink. I asked if they made a mistake and they said that it was no mistake and it was a small. Then I looked at the fries and they were bigger too. I was told that the reason Europe is so much skinnier than America is because they have smaller portions. For example, Their size large is the size of our kiddy cup. But instead of following them, we went the total opposite way. Why?
Answer:
Think of it this way: In the dining room, there are free refills, and if you get a small, you are likely going to just refill it anyways. In the drive-through, there is no such option, and they prefer having more in their drink.
As far as fry portion, or any other side, there is an demand for freshness. Let's face it, when they slap my fries on my tray, and they sit there for the minute (or more) that it takes for the burger to catch up, I ask for hot fries. With such demand, the cost goes up a little, and what follows is value for the money, thus an increase in the portion size.
As to why people get so fat, that comes from people thinking that restaurants are responsible for monitoring people's diets. Ask your self these questions: Should people have to stand on scales while ordering, and if they weigh too much, should the restaurant turn people away? If an obese person orders, should the restaurant give them a diet soda and an apple?
