Brian Wansink directs the Cornell University Food and Brand Lab and is the author of the book Mindless Eating: Why We Eat More Than We Think. His research has revealed that simply serving food on a 10-inch plate rather than a 12-inch plate could lead to a more than 20 percent reduction in calories, with the meal still being satisfying. He also found that even other food researchers ate more than half as much ice cream if they served themselves with big bowls and big scoops versus smaller bowls and scoops.
布莱恩·汪辛克是康奈尔大学食品与商标研究室的主任，也是《瞎吃：为什么我们吃的比心里想的要多》书的作者。他的研究显示，假如把食物放在10英寸而不是12英寸的盘子里，人们就会少吸收20%的卡路里，而这顿饭同样可以让大家心满意足。汪辛克教授也发现，如果食物研究员吃冰激凌时用的是大碗大勺，而不是小碗小勺的话，他们就会多吃半数以上的冰激凌。
