It also happens in reverse: you tend to fill the size of plate you have, the size of glass, etc. At buffets I either pick small plates or intentionally pick a small number of items regardless of how much of the plate is used.

I switched to tiny cups that I drank from directly and found I could easily make that last a meal and have some left. Now I barely drink soda.
