Ig Nobel Prizes
First Laugh, Then Think!
Episode 5: Bottomless soup bowls
Brian Wansink explored the seemingly boundless appetites of human beings, by feeding them with a self-refilling bowl of soup. That creative experiment was good enough for the Nutrition price in 2007.
Ig Nobel Prizes are the not-so-well-known alternative of the famous Nobel Prizes. Each year since 1989, ten scientists receive prizes for "research that makes people LAUGH and then THINK". Watch six scientists and their studies about the most important subjects of our daily life: having sex, food, money, death, and having sex again.

Fantastic video and I full heartedly agree with the statement made. I mean, it made me think of how often I fall into this trap myself; I really do ask "am I full yet" only once the first plate/bowl is done. Great stuff!

arrrgh. Great video, great idea, but that damned slurping sound makes me cringe, and makes me angry. Not 100% sure why, but i wish there was a technology that would remove it from commercials, videos and films. (Animated films do it most!)
So. Like i say, great but for that one bit of gratuitous Foley recording.
