JAKARTA - Are you one of those who like to eat fried chicken and pizza using your bare hands or using a spoon or fork or knife? The way you eat can affect how much you eat.

The research, published in the Journal of Retailing, was actually carried out to find ways to increase the consumption of food retail customers. But for you it can also be useful to help increase your child's appetite or put the brakes on your eating.

A study led by Adriana Madzharov of the Stevens Institute of Technology examined four eating experiences to investigate how eating with our bare hands affects our perception of food and affects the amount of food we eat.

The results were found, food tends to be more appetizing and enjoyable when we touch it with our hands directly rather than eating using a utensil.

This research answers why it's so hard for you to stop picking at your fries or popcorn. This research also confirms the notion that it is better to eat pizza with your hands than using a knife and fork.

In conclusion, if you intend to control your appetite so you don't overdo it, you should eat fried chicken, french fries, or pizza using cutlery. Especially if you are someone who has a hard time resisting the urge to eat.

Or if you want your hard-to-coax child to finish his food, maybe you need to let him touch the food. But remember, teach to always wash your hands with soap for at least 20 seconds, so that your hands are clean of germs.
