Answer:

Portion is how much food you choose to eat at one time, whether in a restaurant, from a package or in your own kitchen. A portion is 100 percent under our control. Many foods that come as a single portion actually contain multiple servings. Serving Size is the amount of food listed on a product's Nutrition Facts label.
