How much ice cream is a serving?

When I was a kid and my parents were going to serve ice cream, they'd ask me if I wanted one or two scoops.
Fast forward 65 years...now its whether I want one or two cartons.

That's because the cartons have shrunk pretty badly.

Lately, daughter and I have been getting original Italian ice cream. The size of the pot contains 6 mounds of ice cream, piped in. Cute!

So, that's three servings each. First day, I've two mounds, same for daughter. Then second and third day. Bliss!!!

I know. When I was a kid, whole gallon sizes were available. Now the largest cartons are 48 oz.

It's very hard not to overdo. Good ice cream is heavenly.

Overdo? What's this thing you refer to as overdo? That doesn't exist in my world. It is possible to underdo, though.

I'm gonna have ice cream. It'll make me feel better. An @Nathan scoop should do the trick.

Scoop? What's that?

I love ice cream and can sit and eat it straight outta the tub but it is wicked on my cholesterol.

Overdo? Are you sure that isn't "over due"?

We had an ice cream restaurant named Jahn's, very popular. They had a huge sundae they called the Kitchen Sink:
