Beat your taste buds, fuel your body properly

Your tongue is very adept at tricking your brain into telling you what it thinks you should be eating, and certain food products are designed to take advantage of this internal circuitry.

Your tongue can provide its opinion on your food intake – I certainly don’t voluntarily eat poor-tasting food – but it shouldn’t make the final call.

Craving something specific to eat right now? That’s fine, just investigate the source of this impulse first before indulging.
