MANAGE weight with music.
If you stock a range of weight
management category products,
you can now add ‘sweet’ music to
your inventory.
Experimental psychologists at
Oxford University have discovered
that playing sweet sounding music
over dinner can help people lower
the amount of sugar they ingest
without changing the taste - they
have dubbed the phenomenon
‘sonic seasoning’.
According to the Telegraph,
Charles Spence, professor of
experimental psychology at
Oxford University, said that it
could allow cooks to reduce
unhealthy ingredients without
losing any of the richness.
“It would definitely work in the
short term.
“You could make a dish appear
up to 10 per cent more sweet or
salty through sounds, which could
be big enough to have a health
impact.”
It apparently works by tricking
the brain into believing that a
flavour is enhanced.
WORN once only.
This is one way to advertise
- Gumtree has a popular
advertisement running for the
sale of a wedding dress from an
estranged newly wed husband.
The 32 year-old heartbroken
Australian posted the dress for
sale, according to Orange News,
with the wording, “Due to be
married soon? Not planning on
staying faithful? Want to sleep
with one of your soon-to-be
husband’s closest friends? Then
THIS is the wedding dress for
you!”
The dress promises ‘to provide
you with approximately two years
of reasonable wedded mediocrity
before the complete and utter
disintegration of your relationship
due to your extramarital
promiscuity.”
Gumtree said that the
advertisement had attracted over
200,000 visits and even hundreds
of dollars in bids.
