Restaurant portions of of crappy food (high calorie, low nutrient, heavily over salted) are large.

Restaurant portions of food you’d actually do well to eat on a regular basis aren’t large. They’re usually tiny compared to DIY at home.

Order a “pasta with scallops” for an extreme example of how many you actually get vs what you could get if you cooked it yourself.

The amount of scallops is probably reasonable, but the pound and a half of pasta you get is not.
