Interesting... after have putting together many a day board myself for more than a decade I can say I have seen this on occasion but not frequently and when I raised an occasional eye brow I got a comment that the volume was there because the food was for several people not just one person.  They were taking it to serve others who were busy which was OK with me.

If it's getting to be a regular problem maybe a private conversation with the individual would be productive... Although I can't say that I have enough experience with the issue to know if this would work well or not.
