And about to get started - as soon as the library doors open up!
Apparently 40+ sign ups! And already people clamoring, ok ok maybe just milling, 😅 to get in!

Ok. Now we're in! Food is here! Now we're talking 😀

@withinity aaah going down a rabbit hole but I have some familiar footholds so I best get back to making my slides
But here's some info that's relevant

"foods high in fat and carbohydrate are, calorie for calorie, valued more than foods containing only fat or carbohydrate and that this effect is associated with greater recruitment of central reward circuits."

Did you know the vast majority of artificial sweeteners were discovered accidentally?

Saccharin, Cyclamate, and Aspartame were all discovered by scientists who tasted sweet flavours on their fingers after perhaps having some poor lab hygiene.

Sucralose was purposefully developed, and is the other major artificial sweetener.
