Why we eat more than we think

Categories: Nutrition & Supplements

We all overeat sometimes. We might think it's because the food is great, or we're hungry, or celebrating, or bored, or sad. Think again, says Brian Wansink. In fact, we are surrounded by hidden factors that operate below our conscious radar: powerful cues, illusions, and eating scripts that have us licking our plates and loosening our belts before we know it. Entertaining and illuminating, Wansink's book Mindless Eating offers practical solutions for avoiding these hidden traps and shows how to enjoy food more -- without mindlessly putting on the pounds.
