The French Guide to Eating Happier & Healthier (Episode 106)
Yann Cornil, Associate Professor of Marketing and Behavioural Science at UBC Sauder School of Business.
As a French food researcher, Yann Cornil was surprised by North American eating habits and messaging about good vs. bad foods. Yann's research with Pierre Chandon suggests that we eat less and enjoy it more when we eat mindfully (read: with our TVs and phones off) and focus on the Epicurean or sensory pleasure of eating. So, listen to this episode and then go savour a small portion of your favourite, delicious, delectable snack!
