supersizing

Supersizing refers to the practice of offering larger portion sizes of food, typically for a nominal additional cost. Commonly seen in fast-food restaurants, it encourages customers to purchase bigger servings, which often contain more calories, fat, and sugar than standard sizes. The goal is to increase sales and satisfy customer demand for more food, but it can contribute to overeating and health issues like obesity. While it provides more value for money, it also influences dietary habits and perceptions of appropriate portion sizes.
