A temporary form of anxiety widely reported by chefs and catering staff who witness it every day. It concerns the dilemma faced by a customer visiting a hot buffet table and noticing that the item he wishes to purchase is the very last portion in a tray. Thus the dilemma. Does he wait longingly for the item to be replaced with a fresh batch or does he choose something else? Whatever becomes of the last portion.............?
Hey Tony ,check out the long face on that dude at the counter. Looks like LPS to me, yes I diagnose Last Portion Syndrome.

“Screw starvation!” yells Oprah (no, not that Oprah). “Screw Jenny Craig, Weight Watchers, Paleo, Keto, raw, Mediterranean, Noom! I’m on this planet just one time (I think) and I want a bowl of hot fudge sauce decorated by a little dab of ice cream! To be followed a full bowl of sweet, sweet whipped cream. That’s just for starters. I'm saying no to no thank you. I want a thank you portion!”
“MicroAlice,” cooed MacroAlice, bending over the toddler’s high chair at Gordon Ramsay Hell’s Kitchen in Las Vegas, and wielding a small silver spoon. "Would babykins at least take a no thank you portion of strained peas?”
“Mother,” said MicroAlice – and these were her first intelligible words – “I would prefer a trencher of whatever you and my esteemed father are consuming. Osso buco with smashed cheesy garlic potatoes and roasted lemon zest out-of-season asparagus would be just fine, a thank you portion! Don't forget the molten chocolate lava cake.”

An Extra Large Portion of Yum-Yum would be like an extra large quadruple bacon thick burger with deep fried onions, chocolate pudding, and high fructose corn syrup.
