In Japan, there is a word "Mottainai". We use this word when we are wasting something, for example time, food, money, and so on. We (not everyone, but at least I) regard wasting the foods is a bad thing, so we are often required to eat them all.
But in the U.S., the foods served by restraunt often beyond my capacity of stomach, so sometimes I can't help leaving the dishes unfinished. Everytime I feel so sorry about wasting foods, and I often wish if the foods served in the U.S. were smaller. If the dishes were smaller and the price of the food was cheaper instead, it would work very well.
So I don't like the amount of the foods in the U.S.. Mottainai!!!!
