That is, and has been, my excuse for a few decades now.
Not My Fault (trademark pending).
I’ve been saying, quite seriously, for years now that if I simply smell food, I gain five pounds minimum.
Whatever it is that makes people fat, it’s definitely not eating too much. At least we know that.
Dumb article. Everybody knows that weight increase is caused by Global Warming.
Jimmy John’s could be sued by people struggling with their weight. Jimmy John’s offers “free smells.” Looks like they have been causing obesity.
Note to self: to lose weight, eat bland, uncooked food!
I can gain weight looking at pictures on the menu!
But did they all eat the whole thing and consume the same calorie count?
The smells in the can make you fat?
A new study out of the University of California, Berkeley, and published in Cell Metabolism found that one’s sense of smell is linked to weight gain. But how can that be? The study says it is possibly related to the way your body stores or burns fat.
Sounds straightforward to me.
But much science is measuring and confirming what seems common sense and obvious.
Some smells can not only make you fat, but can also give you a case of the hibigeebies and in extreme cases can cause rapid weight loss.
I’m weird: I disagree. Sometimes just the smell of delicious foods is deeply satisfying, especially when I know eating it will make me feel sick or bad in some way. I LOVE delicious smelling food and walking through a bakery doesn’t make me fat at all! My house smells like homemade apple pie right now and I won’t be eating one slice!
AARP? Why give them any space on FR?
Do you realize how anti-liberty they are?
I hope no Freepers are AARP members.
no, but fat can make you smell...bad.
This is poorly designed.
Weight gain is one factor
Amount eaten is another factor.
