Mindless Eating: Why We Eat More Than We Think by Brian Wansink

4.0

Wansink brings his readers his research on eating in an easily "digestible" format :) He starts by discussing how easy it is to put on extra pounds because of eating habits we aren't even aware of. In a later chapter the he discusses how the " nutritional gatekeeper" has a lot of control of food choices choices in the house. This is an especially helpful chapter for parents to help them remember just how in control they are of their children's diets. He ends with tips for mindlessly eating better. He warns that there's nothing in his book that will make the weight come off quickly. Instead he aims to help people take control of their food choices, and perhaps without realizing it lose a little bit of weight in the process. This is the 2nd time I've read the book, and it was a good reminder for myself.
