Abstract
People eat food. But this involves a behavior that, in turn, can also influence the amount and type of food ingested. Appetite, in contrast to hunger, is a learned process of wanting to eat compared to needing to eat to survive. In a similar fashion, both cognitive and behavioral habits can be developed around eating and drinking that can influence energy intake. Dealing with excessive or inappropriate intake can thus involve changing behaviors as much as increasing knowledge.
