The Eating Experience
(1) The acquisition of nutrients and energy plays a key role in the drive to eat, but it is not the only factor that affects hunger and satiety. (2) Although traditional food dishes could be easily replaced with nutrition supplements, humans display a strong preference for a more complex eating experience. (3) From the aesthetic appeal of the food to the unique aromas, sounds, and textures they provide, sensory stimulation plays a large role in eating. (4) For example, in one experiment, participants were asked to eat potato chips while listening to several prerecorded sounds. (5) Those who listened to the sound of crunching potato chips perceived higher satisfaction from their eating experience than those who listened to alternative sounds.
(6) Sensory stimulation also produces important signals in our body, such as the signal to digest. (7) In a test group, half of the participants were given samples of cream cheese and the other half were given capsules that contained the same type of fat found in the cream cheese. (8) Those participants who were given the full sensory experience of eating the cream cheese produced more enzymes for efficiently converting the fat into glycerol, which the body can use for energy. (9) This suggests that the physiological and psychosocial effects of eating may be just as important as the nutrients in prompting our body to process food.
