Book Review of Mindless Eating: Why We Eat More Than We Think

Mindless Eating: Why We Eat More Than We Think
reviewed on
Helpful Score: 1


This book shares the surprising findings from many of Cornell's 'Food & Brand Lab' studies. It does more to explain the psychology behind American eating habits and lays out the external factors that contribute to the food choices and individual makes, rather than explicitly telling you how to eat less or improve your diet. However, it helps one better understand what influences our eating habits and has some suggestions on how you can make the science of eating work for you! Really fascinating and an easy read directed at the common person who doesn't necessarily have a background in food science, etc. It was hard to put this book down!
