There Is A Trick To Eating Less Pizza

Against my better judgement, I looked into this scientific trick to eating less pizza. But, my question to the study is...Why? Either way, there is a trick to eating less pizza and it seems fairly easy.

The study was done right in our backyard at Cornell University. I'm not in the business of helping you eat LESS pizza.  My goal is for you to eat as much as possible.

But if you're one of those people who believes in idiotic notions like "portion control" and "diabetes prevention," you might like this.

Scientists at Cornell just published a study that figured out how to TRICK people into eating less pizza.  There are two steps:

1.  Put the pizza on the BIGGEST table you can find.

2.  Cut it into sixteen slices, not eight or 12.

The study found that when pizza was on a big table and had small slices, it tricked people's brains into thinking the slices weren't THAT small . . . so they took a very reasonable portion.

But the OPPOSITE happened when a pizza was on a SMALL table.  Again, you cut it into small slices.  But on the small table, people perceived that pizza as being smaller and the slices as being tiny, so they ate a lot more than normal. (Cornell University)

I think the real trick is to want to eat less pizza. And, I am not there yet.
