Why modern foods are so easy to overeat | Peter Attia & Stephan Guyenet

I wonder if we are hardwired to crave smooth foods with fat and carbs. That's what breast milk is like. Ice-cream, chocolate, cheese cake, custard - even mashed potato are all the ultimate comfort foods and seem to resonate emotionally. We can associate them with feelings of love, comfort and being cared for.

Yes nuts do hit that more more more high point. But in nature - nuts are hard to get a lot of. Those shells! We can only binge on nuts because someone else shells them. The amount of work just to get one brazil or one walnut!

The only thing some old people want to eat is ice cream. I noticed just putting sugar in milk is similar, maybe less calories.

There are so many videos of babies' cute reactions to eating ice cream for the first time, the ice cream loving gene is so common.😅

Modern foods are like that one aunt at the family reunion - they just won't stop feeding you! Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to go refill my snack bowl...
