This is the first book I picked up and read in 2014.
It is not new. But it was eye opening and good information for me to learn about.

This book will literally change the way you think about your next meal. Food psychologist Brian Wansink revolutionizes our awareness of how much, what, and why we’re eating—often without realizing it. His findings will astound you.- Goodreads
Here are some notes that I took since it was not my own book and I couldn't mark it up like I wanted to.
Pg. 34 Okinawa and I no longer hungry
Pg 56 See it before you eat it. Put everything you want on your plate before you eat it.
Pg. 59-60 we serve and eat more when we buy in bulk.
Pg. 80 studies have even shown up the more we like the food the faster you eat and swallow it.
The more you think of something the more of it you'll eat.
Pg. 75 the smaller the box the less you make. The smaller the serving the less you take and the less you eat.
Pg.93 big box stores
Stick to the perimeter of the store, that's where the fresh food hang out.
Pg.95 teach lydia how to avoid mindless eating scripts.
Pg. 96 Eating is like shopping the longer you stay at the mall the more you buy. the longer you stay at the table the more you tend to eat.
Try to be the last person to start eating.
Pace yourself with the slowest eater at the table.
Pre-regulate consumption by deciding how much to eat prior to the meal instead of during the meal.
Pg.99 weight can be inherited but it can also be contagious.
Pg. 122 brownies served on China vs napkins. We eat with our eyes. Our taste buds are biased by our imagination. basically if you expect the food to taste good it will. if you expect it to food tastes bad, it will.
Pg. 178 Crown yourself ad the gatekeeper. I am in charge of what food I buy and feed my family.
Offer variety. Ethnic foods.
Half plate rule. Half veggies/ fruits and other half protein and starch.
