Turns out your go-to comfort food might be way more powerful than you think. A new study reveals that one particular snack hits the same pleasure spots in your brain as some pretty serious substances… and now we totally get the cravings. Let’s unpack the science behind why it’s so damn hard to say no.
Ricky Leeingel.
Let's talk about what food is like a drug for you, and let's throw to it with a little clip of a tune, and let's see if you can doush this.
Okay said yea.
Food is a drug for you. I'll give it a go. No, you gotta say food.
It is food because it's what the story a story is what food is like a drug?
And when I fries and when I say this, it's like, yeah, you come in at the right place.
Oh my god, Oh you don't give the answer of what your what your food food is? It's like a drug. In the song when it before it says it's like a drug, you say food. I've never heard that song in my life, but I got it.
Come on, let's go proxy music.
Oh my god. Okay, I don't know what part of getting wrong.
Drug.
Okay, don't worry about it. Thirty twenty four to ten.
What food is got drug for you?
Farri's I told you mcflury's is your jam, it's your thing y flavor?
What flavor is it? Craig David, I like an oreo or I just saw the biscoff is coming, which I will be trying later.
This evening. Oh my gosh, I went to like frow your go chi or whatever yoa Chi. I went there the other night and that was amazing.
Bisco with me and.
The kids, and he loaded up big time, like, you know, did you charged by the weight?
I didn't. I didn't, but I know my lesson that time. And also because I can only a little bit, I end up giving it to rich and it's only the flavors that I like. I'm not here.
So oh well, I heard Yochi. You know the guys that created boost Yeah, they gave that to their kids. That was their kids little gift. You talked about the best gift ever before.
Wow, that was their gift. Here, kids have Yochi.
The people that created boost is in Boost Juice.
Created the Yoachi franchise and then gave the franchise to their kids. That's wow. What a gift. My dad gave me a magnum of red wine once heaven, I'll.
Share it with him, or did you have it yourself myself?
What food is a drug?
Twenty four?
Yes, because the study has found that highly processed and fatty foods like cheese can activate reward centers in the brain, similarly to addictive drugs.
Cheese. It's so true.
Rich is like a fiend.
What's what's his cheese?
A choice? I know. And it's like the way he eats chips, it's the way he eats cheese and he just never stops. Like it makes me feel sick. The amount of.
Cheese, soft cheese, or a heart, it doesn't matter.
As long as it's cheese. It's going in his mouth and he's eating everything inside and it's it's it's like I've never seen anyone do it, but it's like this makes it all make sense for me. And I'm kind of like that with pizza, Like if there's pizza in front of me, I cannot if there is another line, yeah, and I'm watching you. I'm hoping you're getting full over the side because I'm like, I want to have the rest of that. I'm sure we get extra pizza just so that I know that there's going to be leftovers for me, so that I can more full junkie mode. So this study by the University of Michigan found that cheese triggers the same brain response as hard drugs, creating a mild but pleasurable high and contributing to cravings. Isn't that wild? Like cheese is like having drugs, A really creamy breeze with a bit of Maggie Bear Quint's paste on it. I love that daffin wire.
