The researchers found that those who were shown images of high carb food items reported enjoying the taste more than those who were shown low carb images. The study has been published in the journal PLoS ONE.
“The results provide evidence that high calorie food cues enhance the hedonic evaluation of subsequently presented tastes. The study provides novel insights into cross-modal sensory interactions underlying taste and probably food evaluation and consumption”, lead researcher Dr Johannes le Coutre said.
