Eat Me

A new article, this time in Stanford Magazine, about Brian Wansink's research on the psychology of eating. He's a fascinating man and passionate about his subject. Read the article to find out why we eat more M+M's when they're sorted by color, or get drunker faster with short, wide glasses.

i enjoyed your article thoroughly. and i learned two new words: peripatetic and alimentary. i think that you and michael chabon are the two authors that make me leap for my dictionary with the highest frequency.

that is quite an honor! glad you liked it. and i must give credit where credit is due: alisa is the one who put "peripatetic" on my mind.
