The professor of pigging out

We eat with our eyes, not with our stomach

. One experiment we've done in this realm is with a refillable soup bowl. We found that people eating from the refillable bowl ate 73 percent more soup.

Refillable soup bowls, thats super cool! The moral? Buy smaller plates:

We find that people eat 92 percent of all the food that they serve themselves. You're likely to eat, if not all of it, most of it. So anything that causes you to take more than you otherwise would is going to cause you to eat more. Six ounces of pasta on an 8-inch plate looks like a pretty good portion. But that same 6 ounces of pasta on a 12-inch plate would look like barely an appetizer.

And studies say if you eat less (25% less) you will live longer. So I guess we should by plates 25% smaller and all will be well.

Oh also important to live long and healthy ;
1. Nice guys die last
3. Get the giggles
4. Eat whole grains
5. Floss (!?)
6. Veg out - go vegetarian!!
7. Eat tuna (and salmon and other oily fish)
8. Drink tea (green better than black)
9. Believe in something
10. Eat berries ...
and it goes on... do yoga, olive oil, live yoghurt, have a pet (?), optimism, fall in love good friends, stay married, reduce salts, keep using your mind, enjoy a glass of red wine, and get enough sleep to name a few...
