nudge knowledge-know your portion

I chatted with a friend earlier today about the need for educating the public on portion control in order to fight obesity in this country.  Since I was in need of a snack, I decided to share with you what one serving size of nuts looks like.  This is 1 oz of pecans, per the recommended serving size on the package, purchased at Wal-Mart, not some health food store.  Yes, it does eliminate hunger pangs, especially if you're drinking an appropriate amount of water.
