Has anybody else tried anything like this? Does it actually work? This had never occurred to me, and I'm interested in hearing from anybody who's tried it before. It seems like a low cost way to get some eyes and opinions.
Tangentially, also, does the opinion/result show any deviation pre-meal vs post-meal? Would love to see a paper on this, as weird as that sounds.

- Something1234 5y agoYeah cause I normally won't buy a Snickers it's not a normal thought except when it's in front of my face. I assume that's the case for most everybody.

- LegitShady 5y agoI think you'd only get feedback from people who eat at McDonald's.
