you determine serving sizes.
3 oz meat = deck of cards or palm of a small hand
1 oz of cubed Swiss cheese = 2 dice
1 oz of cheese = 1 thin deli slice
1 cup anything = 1 baseball
3 oz meat = deck of cards or palm of a small hand

Also, most sticks of mozzarella “string” cheese are one ounce, which
is really filling! Maybe it’s a less dense cheese, but it’s
certainly more than the size of a pair of dice.
