Yes, I have experienced this myself. What I've had served to me in Italy was on a small side dish with only tomato sauce.

Yes, much smaller quantities and they walk everywhere. Our servings in the US are 2-3x the size. At dinner in several homes, I've seen that their diet is very low carb. Those slim French ladies are not eating the bread or desserts in the way that we would on a regular basis with the SAD. |
