|---|---|
| “I just dish” |
“I can’t explain why I put these quantities on the plate.
“Honestly I don’t know, I have no idea. I dish, I think to myself, a little bit of everything and that’s it…I just dish.” “It’s guesswork.” |
| The size of the plate |
“I would say that we think that he should be able to eat the amount of a small plate.”
“Let’s say that we put children’s portions, to fit their plates.” |
| Appetite estimation |
“I know more or less how much he is capable of eating, how much he eats every day on average.”
“Well I know about how much they eat, so I’m going to prepare a portion accordingly…I insist they eat at least what I think they can.” |
