According to the study, dim lights and soft music can make us eat less. "When we change the decor of fast food restaurants, we found the lights were dim and soft music make more people enjoy the atmosphere and mengasup fewer calories," says Brian Wanskink, professor of marketing and director of the Cornell University Food and Brand Lab.
The study found that people eat less (reduced by about 18 percent) when the atmosphere of the restaurant changed. Diners also claimed to better enjoy their food.
"The study shows, environments that provide a relaxed atmosphere will increase customer satisfaction and reduce the desire to eat foods," he said.
