Is getting more food for your money always a good value?

By: Meg Dilts

Have you noticed that it only costs a few cents more to get larger sizes of fries or soft drinks at restaurants?  Getting a larger portion of food for just a little extra money may seem like a good value, but you end up with more food and calories than you need.

Before you buy your next “value combo,” be sure you are making the best choice for your wallet and your health. If you are with someone else, share the large-size meal. If you are eating alone, skip the special deal and just order what you need.
