How to use "Portions" in context?
When you are eating out, it is customary to order "portions" instead of just a whole plate of food. What exactly is a "portion?" A "portion" is generally defined as the appropriate amount of food to eat for one's intended purpose. For example, if you are eating a sandwich, you would likely order a "ham and cheese" sandwich and not an "entree" sandwich, because an entree sandwich would be too large. A "portion" is determined by how big the sandwich is and how hungry you are. Furthermore, a "portion" is not always the same size for everyone.
