When you buy in bulk, you eat in bulk. Buy smaller packages. Huge boxes and bags make a serving size look small, making it easy to inaccurately estimate how much you are eating. When you have a 3-month supply of a food, you tend to think you can eat as much as you want. Buy small packages and make yourself restock what you eat regularly.
