▶ 5:32 Copper Bowl Tools “I gulped and bought a copper bowl because they're expensive and did a side-by-side, and the difference was tremendous, different color, different texture, different consistency in the mouth, totally different experience.” ▷ 34:14 Slow Eating Behaviors “it's, I think, one of the best arguments for enjoying your food slowly because you never know what's going to kind of show up in your mouth after, you know, 20 or 30 seconds. is slow down, enjoy every bite, and notice what's happening because it's often a really dynamic experience.” ▷ 41:11 Soup First Diet “having the soup come early helps among other things partly fill your stomach so that when you then go to the main course, you don't have to eat as much in order to be satisfied.” ▷ 41:38 Salad Last Diet “and then the salad, you know the salad is coming and it kind of refreshes you because the main course is usually on the heavy and rich side... So I think the salad kind of closes out the main part of the meal and refreshes you a little bit.” ▷ 43:17 Palate Cleanser Diet “palate cleansers are usually cold and not too strong in any direction, a little bit tart often. So something cold and tart to break up a meal where you've gone from one kind of rich course and you're about to have another rich course because it's a fancy restaurant.” ▷ 46:18 Reduce Salt Gradually Behaviors “what they found was that you can, over time, adjust thresholds and preferences for the basic tastes... It does take time. So the Monell study, I think, lasted maybe a couple of months. It takes time, but it's certainly doable.” ▷ 50:53 Choose Minimally Processed Foods Diet “if you're going to start with strawberries and then add a bunch of other things... for the purpose of stimulation rather than the purpose of appreciating and enjoying those individual components, then you're kind of giving up, I would say, most of the pleasure of eating.” ▷ 55:12 AeroPress Tools “I like the idea a lot, and it seems to me you can control the flavor with it much more than you can with a drip system simply because when it drips, it drips, but you can hold it in the AeroPress as long as you want.” ▷ 1:06:01 Chamomile Tea Diet “Great. Because I like tea at the end of a meal. I like chamomile tea after a meal.” ▷ 1:10:52 Eat a Varied Diet Diet “I'm not sure that I would buy in necessarily to the idea of an optimal diet in the first place because unless optimal included, tremendously varied... it's making sure to try a lot of different things all the time rather than hewing to one particular approach.” ▷ 1:13:07 Goggles Tools “You can wear goggles, which prevents volatile molecules from getting to your eyes.” ▷ 1:13:18 Rinse Cut Onions With Water Behaviors “You can do the cutting interspersed with just a rinse in water because the molecules are being generated at the surface that you generating by doing the cutting. So if occasionally you just rinse those surfaces, then the volatiles go away and they don't bother you as much.” ▷ 1:13:34 Maui Onions Diet “You can also get non-pungent varieties of onions, which exist. And Maui onions are the best known of those. And they just don't make those sulfur molecules so that they don't irritate us.” ▷ 1:24:11 Use Salt to Reduce Bitterness Diet “She would salt her grapefruit. And it turns out, we know now, that in fact, salt and bitter are kind of opposing sensations. And you can actually diminished the sensation of bitterness by upping the salt.” ▷ 1:25:30 Drink Beer at Room Temperature Diet “they'll come around with a heater and they'll heat your beer so that it's room temperature. And it completely changes the taste. The bubbles are small in those beers. They taste to me just a little bit sweeter.” ▷ 1:44:41 Low-Sugar Fermented Foods Diet “consuming low sugar fermented foods on a daily basis can lower inflammation markers of inflammation even more so than increasing one's fiber intake” ▷ 1:50:24 Eat Fewer Processed Foods Diet “I think if there's one thing that the vegans, the vegetarians, the omnivores and the carnivores all agree on is that eating fewer processed foods is better.” ▷ 1:56:03 Soak Beans and Discard the Water Behaviors “Soaking the beans will work. That leaches out some of these molecules, which are small and so soluble in water.” ▷ 1:56:40 Eat Beans and Legumes Regularly Diet “it has been shown that you can or your system can kind of adapt... the first few times you have beans or lentils or whatever it might be, you may have some discomfort. But the more frequently you eat it, the better you're able to tolerate it” ▷ 1:57:55 Eat Fruits and Vegetables Diet “I mean, I love fruits and vegetables and legumes and eat lots of those” ▷ 1:59:46 Offer Children the Family Meal Without Forcing It Behaviors “we just made our regular dinners every day. And we would say to our kids you welcome to eat as much or as little of what we have as you want but this is what we have”
