If you want a good measure then look at the carbs. More carbs approximates to less satiety.
It's all based on where the food sits in terms of its Glycemic Index. High GI foods trigger an insulin release and insulin effectively tells your cells to lower your blood sure levels. Lower blood sugar reduces the feeling of satiety, aka makes you hungry.
By avoiding insulin releases in the first place (sweet/grainy/starchy shit) you'll come out a far healthier person.
- Tarrosion 13y agoFrom personal experience, I believe that it's not always so simple. When I eat a steak for dinner (rare), I notice that even right after the meal I feel incomplete, and I'm hungry within an hour or two. When I eat a muffin for lunch, I feel content for several hours. (And the muffin has about 2/3 the calories of the steak.)
- adventured 13y agoIt's a very interesting contrast of experiences. When I eat a steak I'm not hungry for a long time afterward (whereas a muffin doesn't sate nearly as well). It makes me wonder what causes such a variance between people with regards to how they experience food.
- aytekin 13y agoFor a better a/b test you should compare apples to apples. Maybe you just expect to eat more for dinner, and you eat less at lunch.
