Dessert is a powerful thing. Just think about it. We have all been there. You are out to eat with family or a group of friends and find yourself hesitant to finish your entrée because you are saving room for dessert. Imagine that! You are looking forward to a post meal treat so much that you would pause, and maybe even waste part of a meal just to ensure you aren’t too full to enjoy something sweet.
But why? Why is dessert after a meal so darn enticing and satisfying? Well, according to food scientist and author of Why Humans Like Junk Food, Steven Witherly, "As we eat the savory course, we rapidly reduce our hunger pangs and become full — the pleasure of the first course has passed (savory and hot). But as we indulge again with a new set of foods (sweet and cold), our appetite re-energizes — and we indulge in the pleasures of eating once again,". Now, seeing that humans are pleasure-seeking creatures, it makes sense that more often than not we are going to want to take a look at that dessert menu!
