Menu Generator & Drop Table Menu Generator & Drop Table Sample file Suitable for use with any Fantasy RPG Introduction: While my original intention was just to put out a “quick” drop table for generating decent enough menus that your players might encounter at a local establishment, it occurred to me that what one GM might find useful, the next would find abhorrently complex and the next not nearly complex enough. I like the idea of giving GM useful tools that can flex to meet their needs. To this end the drop table is a bit multi-purpose and if you would rather not print the table, a series of printer-friendly tables are included as part of this product. I’ve also added some blank space at the end of each table so you can feel free to add your own entries. If your players are adventuring in an area with a certain set of specialties, why wouldn’t the local menus reflect this? When possible I tried to use more modern equivalents for certain items, but there is a richness in the old names for some dishes I couldn’t mess with. So things make sense I’ve also included a small list of definitions to help you explain the food to your players. In case you happen to be interested, some of these dishes can be made in the modern era. If you want to try this I can recommend three sites for medieval recipes: The Gode Cookery, Medieval Cookery, and Celtnet. Sample file -Christopher Stogdill AKA the Frugal GM Directions for Use: Drop Table: Either roll a 1d20 to indicate a pre-made menu, or roll five different-sized dice. The location of each die indicates one aspect of the meal. Each meal consists of an aperitif, bread and a small side dish, a vegetable course, a main course, and a digestive/dessert. Standard Tables: Roll the appropriate die listed for an individual dish, or just the full range of “standard” dice (i.e. d4, d6, d8, d10, d12, and d20) for a whole meal, unless you decide to add entries…..sub tables have been added for some variety should you choose to use them.

  • Portion Distortion Written by Joseph Ewing, RD, LDN
    Portion Distortion Written by Joseph Ewing, RD, LDN Over the past several years, portion sizes have increased significantly! With this increase in portion sizes, there has been a noticeable increase in obesity in people of all ages and ethnicities. Portion distortion refers to what “we” feel is a “normal” portion size versus what is actually being served. For example, a standard portion of steak is 3 ounces… Have you ever gone to a restaurant and ordered a 3 ounce steak? No, because it is not available. Most times when order a steak they come in 8 ounces, 12 ounces, 24 ounces or more! That’s incredible! We’re talking about an astronomical calorie difference. The recommended 3oz Filet Mignon has 130 calories vs. an 8 ounce filet mignon with 301 calories (served at Outback Steakhouse (www.caloriecount.com)). Portion vs. Serving Image: milesforthought.wordpress.com According to the National Institutes of Health, a “portion” is how much food you choose to eat at one time, whether it is at home, in a restaurant, prepackaged or homemade. A “serving” size is a specific amount of food or beverage such as 1 cup of pudding or 1 slice of bread. Sometimes when you are eating a “portion” of food, it matches the serving size, but many times it does not. In order to explain this concept, let’s look at a can of Campbell’s Condensed Tomato Soup. Serving size is ½ cup Servings per container are about 2.5. This means if you eat this whole can of soup you would be consuming 2.5 servings of soup! If you consumed 1 (1/2 cup) portion of this soup, you would consume 480mg of If you consumed the sodium.

Bookhouse Brewing (Ohio) Celestial Map 16oz Nonic $6.50 IPA - American / 7.3% ABV / 60 IBU / Cleveland, OH 10oz Nonic $4.00 Our mainstay IPA takes a "big tent" approach to style: enough malt to provide balance, as is the wont of the Midwestern IPA; hop bitterness and 5oz Taster $2.50 flavor in the tradition of the West Coast IPA; huge dry-hopping-derived aroma in the tradition of New England IPA. So you could say it's a real "map 64oz Growler Refill $18.00 of the stars," of the IPA world. Made with Nugget, Simcoe, and Centennial hops, the hop aroma explodes from the glass with pine, citrus, and herbal intensity.

Deep russet in color, there's an argument to be made that this might be more of a Belgian amber 64oz Growler Refill $15.00 ale, even though that's not really a thing. Or is it? This is the kind of circular discussion that could be overheard at a cafe in Antwerp, extending well into the afternoon.

    Food Portions and Serving Sizes in Diabetes Meal Plans This slide show explains: • Difference between a serving and a portion • Where to find serving sizes on food labels • Serving sizes for meats, fruits, vegetables • Using your hand to estimate portions Pia has a Bachelors Degree in Clinical Nutrition from Cornell University and a Masters of Science in Nutrition from New York University. She completed a dietetic internship at the Bronx Veterans Medical Center in order to become a registered dietitian. Prior to joining BD, Pia educated people with diabetes about medical nutrition therapy in a private physicians office, an outpatient clinic at a hospital and a nursing home where she counseled patients one-on-one and in group classes. Next slide The difference between a serving size and a portion of food A "serving size" is the amount of food that is used to calculate the nutritional values on a food label. For example, a serving size might be 1 cookie, or ½ cup of cereal. A "portion" is the actual amount of a food that you choose to eat. A portion might consist of several “servings”. Example 1 Example 2 A serving of unsweetened applesauce is ½ cup, Your diabetes meal plan may say that you should eat and it has 14 grams of carbohydrate. 3 fruit servings per day. You like bananas, but a serving of banana is either ½ of a large banana or However, you may choose to eat a 1 cup portion one small banana (less than 6 inches long). of applesauce.

Most individuals maintain their food intake weight (g) and eating rate (g/min) rank in relation to their peers, despite food and environmental manipulations. Single meal measures may enable identification of “large portion eaters” and “fast eaters,” finding individuals at risk of developing obesity. The aim of this study was to predict real-life food intake weight and eating rate based on one school lunch. Twenty-four high-school students with a mean (±SD) age of 16.8 yr (±0.7) and body mass index of 21.9 (±4.1) were recruited, using no exclusion criteria.
