- 0:00Speaker 1: Why is somebody else's food good? We explain it's l
- 0:04Speaker 1: FM and Christine, Actually you've taught me a lot in
- 0:06Speaker 1: this article you're reading.
- 0:07Speaker 2: Christine, Well, it's interesting. Why is it when you steal
- 0:10Speaker 2: food off of someone's plate it's always better? Like, I
- 0:13Speaker 2: don't know that's true. It can be exactly exactly. The
- 0:17Speaker 2: same little scientific study was done. Table of four. They
- 0:21Speaker 2: were given French fries, and they found out that if
- 0:24Speaker 2: someone stole the fries off of another person's plate, they
- 0:28Speaker 2: reported it being forty percent more enjoyable then like the
- 0:32Speaker 2: same ones that they had. There's absolutely no difference.
- 0:35Speaker 1: I like yours better, like somebody thinks you've got better fries,
- 0:38Speaker 1: or if you both got a steak. Ok yeah, yeah.
- 0:42Speaker 2: Do that all the time. Actually yeah. And they said
- 0:45Speaker 2: that part of it too is if there's a thrill
- 0:48Speaker 2: to it, like like it goes up like okay, kub,
- 0:51Speaker 2: can I have a fry, like suddenly it's better. But
- 0:54Speaker 2: if you turn around and I steal a fry, it's
- 0:57Speaker 2: even better according to this little thrill. Yeah, of like
- 1:04Speaker 2: doing something naughty.
- 1:06Speaker 1: I'm such a rebel.
- 1:07Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm crazy. I stole a French fry and I
- 1:10Speaker 2: got away with it and wow, it's good, you know.
- 1:13Speaker 1: It leads me to another conversation we could have about
- 1:15Speaker 1: when people reach over and like with their fork and
- 1:18Speaker 1: want to try your food. Wait, am I sparking something
- 1:21Speaker 1: up here?
- 1:21Speaker 2: That really that? Right?
- 1:23Speaker 1: If they don't ask, if they ask, okay, maybe I'll
- 1:26Speaker 1: give you some steak. Yeah, but you've had friends like
- 1:29Speaker 1: reach over and not even say anything. It irks me too.
- 1:34Speaker 1: You're not alone, and.
- 1:35Speaker 2: I just try and contain myself and like, that's okay,
- 1:38Speaker 2: go for it. And I'm thinking, like, you know, Eric
- 1:42Speaker 2: and I are so close, right, We're so close that
- 1:44Speaker 2: we could theoretically do that, but we still ask each other.
- 1:47Speaker 1: My wife usually asked me, yeah, Actually, we were at
- 1:49Speaker 1: a Greek restaurant yesterday and she was having some kind
- 1:52Speaker 1: of like meat on a kabab and I was done
- 1:54Speaker 1: with my lunch and she was almost done, and she's like,
- 1:57Speaker 1: do you want to try some of this kebab? And
- 1:58Speaker 1: she I said yes, and you put the little piece
- 2:00Speaker 1: of meat on my plate, right, and there we go. Relationship. Yeah,
- 2:04Speaker 1: but I didn't reach over and grab.
- 2:07Speaker 2: And does this happen to you too? Because he eats
- 2:11Speaker 2: faster than I do, right, so he'll be done with
- 2:14Speaker 2: his meal and I'm still eating now I'm feeling self conscious,
- 2:17Speaker 2: like oh should I speed it up or what should
- 2:19Speaker 2: I do? And that's that's that is, like you said,
- 2:22Speaker 2: like with Coco, that is when I tend to offer again,
- 2:25Speaker 2: like oh, would you like some of this? Like just
- 2:27Speaker 2: keep it going so we're both eating at the same time.
- 2:30Speaker 1: Have about when you offer and you hope it's only
- 2:32Speaker 1: one bite. You don't want them coming back for more.
- 2:35Speaker 2: I've actually told him, I'm like it not a man
- 2:37Speaker 2: sized bite. Oh right right, yeah, because sometimes I'm like,
- 2:40Speaker 2: do you want to bite my sandwich? And half the
- 2:42Speaker 2: sandwich is gone like one bite.
- 2:44Speaker 1: You're like gart it.
- 2:45Speaker 2: Dudes, dude, dude, don't don't do a dude bite on
- 2:49Speaker 2: my sandwich. I need some of that. I'm hungry.
- 2:51Speaker 1: Hit us up on text at four four three six three.
- 2:54Speaker 1: Do you buy into this article here that food tastes
- 2:56Speaker 1: better when you kind of steal it off somebody's plate.
