:19:00
and they're trained to tell you
to buy a bigger size.
:19:03
For five cents more,
you can get the super size.
:19:06
Federal government
will define a piece of meat,
:19:09
three ounces of meat,
as a sensible portion,
:19:11
and that looks like
a deck of cards.
:19:14
Few people would be able
to find this deck of cards
:19:17
if they were served a piece of
meat, a steak, in a restaurant.
:19:19
It would probably be about
four or five times this size.
:19:22
One typical bagel
that one is eating
:19:24
that looks something like this
:19:26
is going to comprise
five servings of bread.
:19:29
When fast food companies
first opened,
:19:31
they generally
introduced one size.
:19:34
For example,
one size French fries
:19:36
when McDonald's first opened,
called "fries."
:19:40
that size fries
is now called "small."
:19:43
Medium, large, and super size.
:19:47
That original size
is still here.
:19:49
It's got about 200 calories.
:19:51
but the super size is gonna
pack in over 600 calories.
:19:54
When Burger King first opened,
:19:56
they had a 12-ounce small
and a 16-ounce large.
:19:59
This 12-ounce is now kiddy.
:20:01
The 16-ounce is now the small...
:20:04
the medium, the 32, and the 42
:20:07
and this is across the board
with all fast-food places.
:20:09
Cars have introduced
larger cup holders
:20:12
to accommodate those huge
7-eleven double gulps,
:20:17
which are 64 ounces,
a half gallon,
:20:19
and hold anywhere
from 600 to 800 calories,
:20:21
depending on how much ice
you put in.
:20:23
A half-gallon of soda?
:20:25
A half-gallon of soda
for one person,
:20:27
48 teaspoons of sugar.
:20:30
Hello, may I help you?
:20:32
Yeah, could I get
:20:33
the double quarter pounder
with cheese meal?
:20:36
Large or super size?
:20:38
I think I'm gonna
have to go super size.
:20:42
Look at that.
look at that coke.
:20:45
That barely fits in there.
:20:47
Oh, shit!
:20:49
Ive got a -- look at that.
:20:52
look at how big that thing is.
:20:54
Look how big that French fry is.
:20:56
That thing is,
like, four feet tall.
:20:59
Double quarter pounder
with cheese.
