portion control through pottery

Food for Thought:

Want to cut down on what you eat but need a helpful reminder? The answer may soon lie in your kitchen cupboards!

Several manufacturers now offer dinnerware that helps you measure food portions on your plates and bowls. For example, a company named Studio Penipento (877-310-8442) makes a line of ceramic bowls that come equipped with pastel dots on the bottoms and sides that clearly indicate food amounts. Vessel’s (vesselinc.com) new line of everyday white plates and bowls has a low ridge to help control portions.
