Wired news has an article on promising researching in Switzerland linking food cravings to certain bacteria in the stomach. The Swiss team's chosen food of choice was Chocolate (could they choose anything else?), and the study has been published in a peer reviewed journal. This opens the door to a huge new field of research into nutrition, and a whole bunch of excuses by children for the consumptions of their favorite foods. Battling the bulge would no longer be a matter of will power, but a matter of reconfiguration of the stomach. I can already imagine doctors around LA opening up shop for "clinical balancing of the stomach."
Parents be warned!!
