The mathematical relationship between dishware size and portion size
Appetite, 2012Portion size has increased considerably over the past few decades and one influencing factor is dishware size. Using mathematical models we investigated how dish size affects the potential energy available in a meal. Two types of plate filling - flat and conical - were modelled for a range of plate sizes and energy densities, then compared to ...

Ecology of Food and Nutrition, 2008Three studies were made in which chips (French fries) of different thickness and peas of different sizes were used. In each study, subjects were asked to serve the food in an attempt to match a standard amount of food placed on the table. Subjects served significantly (P < 0.001) smaller amounts of thin chips compared to thick chips, whether the ...

Visual Perception of Portion Size
Journal of Culinary Science & Technology, 2010People overestimate thick and underestimate thin chipped potatoes when judging by eye. Three possible causes of this misperception have been tested by questionnaire in this study: the greater number of pieces of thin chips may suggest that there is a greater amount or they might match the height of the mound or the plate coverage. Subjects plated three

Portion size estimation aids for Asian foods
Journal of Human Nutrition and Dietetics, 2012AbstractBackground: Portion size estimation is fundamental to the accuracy of dietary recall, as well as interventions in obesity. Data on portion size estimation aids (PSEA) for Asian foods are limited. PSEA for Asian foods were developed and their accuracy and precision were tested for inclusion in a food atlas.Methods: Sixteen food items were ...
