2. Scroll through social media sites such as Instagram, Twitter or Facebook and you will
be confronted with picture after picture of perfectly presented and utterly delicious-
looking meals. While the smell and taste of food can have an undeniably powerful effect
on our cravings, are endless posts of steaming snacks and glistening morsels more than
just a feast for our eyes?
Certainly, it appears we're hugely influenced by other people – especially those closest to
us – when it comes to what we eat. Research has found that the closer and stronger two
people's connection, the more sway they have over each other's food choices.
3."A lot of our cues from face-to-face interactions are linked with who we're with," says
Solveig Argeseanu, associate professor of global health and epidemiology at Emory
University in Atlanta, Georgia, US. "It's more about the relationship and how I compare
myself with that person than specific individuals. If I think the person I'm with is more
attractive or popular, I'll tend to want to imitate them more."
This can mean these social cues generally encourage us to eat more, Argeseanu adds.
Although, being around healthy eaters may encourage you to eat healthier, too, according
to research.
4. Our eating habits are also influenced by what we see. Scientists say we favor "oozing"
protein, a dribbling egg yolk, or bubbling mozzarella, for example.
"There is some evidence that, if you see pictures of food, that visual stimulation can
prompt you to feel a desire to eat," says Suzanne Higgs, professor in the psychobiology
of appetite at the University of Birmingham, UK. Although, she says, whether people
follow through on that desire is influenced by a lot of other factors, such as what food is
available at the time.
5. But social media is one place where visual and social cues meet. There is certainly
evidence that if friends in your social network post regularly about particular types of
food, it could lead you to copy them, for better or for worse. And research indicates that
social media might be changing our relationship with food, making us think differently
about what we eat.
"If all your friends on social media are posting pictures of themselves consuming fast
food, it's going to set a norm that eating fast food is what people do," says Higgs.
6. Research suggests we're more likely to engage with photos of fast food, says Ethan
Pancer, professor of marketing at Saint Mary's University in Halifax, Nova Scotia,
Canada. This is particularly true of saturated fat, because it makes us feel good by
releasing dopamine and stimulating pleasure centres in the brain. Humans are
biologically primed to seek out calorie-dense food – an ability that helped our ancestors
survive when they foraged for food.
