Another Cause of Obesity?

March 25, 2016

I think I’ve discovered another cause of obesity—or at least a contributing factor:

Air conditioning.

Today at work I kept thinking of some nice, gooey comfort food that I wished I could eat.

But when I left work and walked out into the warm sunshine, I forgot all about it. Instant warmth, instant dismissal of need for comfort food. (And no, sweaters don’t help.)

So maybe if we stopped freezing ourselves, we’d feel like eating less.

Or not.
