We also got screwed over on portions at all these fast food and restaurants. McDonald's legit made their food so cheap that you would buy two cheeseburgers, and you might as well make it a meal with an oversized drink and oversized french fry. Then we all got used to more food, subtly convinced that was the norm. Hell, a large soda was cheaper than a bottle of water!

It's not normal to have a 1500-2000 calorie meal like that.
