well unless you actually go check each and every one there's really no way for you to know.
during the early days of fast food there was only one size of fries and that was, you guessed it small.
a marketing employee wanted to see what would happen, if they increased the size of the fries. his bosses did not like the idea.
he then went to a few mcdonalds to observe people and noticed that people wanted more fries but they thought if they went to get more than one bag, it would make them look selfish. he also noticed that people were eating every last piece of the fry in the bag adn even lick the salt.
after he reported the findings his bosses went with the idea and the strategy worked.
which is why we now have, small, medium, large and super size
