Dr Brian Wansink from New York won the food prize for an experiment with soup. He invented a never-ending bowl. When people ate tomato soup from the bowl, the bowl was automatically filled again from a tube connected to the bottom of the bowl. He discovered that people ate 73% more than usual when they used the bowl. But they didn’t feel full. The conclusion was that we decide how much to eat with our eyes, not with the way our stomach feel. Dr Brian Wansink from New York won the food prize for an experiment with soup.
