Hey /fit/, have you ever thought what exactly it is that makes us humans so addicted to shitty food, and so scared of things that are good for us? And I know, I know, you guys will all say something like: "we are naturally inclined to seek high fat/carb foods because when we were hunter gatherers food was scarce so we actually NEEDED extra energy" or something along those lines. However, I am thinking something more along the lines of what specific brain pleasure/reward system is specifically responsible for making cosumption of unhealthy shit so pleasurable. Is it the comfy feeling you get after eating carbs? Is it a sugar rush? Is it our sense of taste?
Now with this in mind, I would like to propose my most ingenious weight loss theory ever. What if we were to "in theory" remove our sense of taste via surgery or w/e. Once this is done, everything will taste the same i.e. bland no matter what we eat. Broccoli will taste the same as candy, water will taste the same as soda, etc… And if everything tastes the same no matter what, then we will use the rational part of our brain to chose what we eat since the pleasure incentive to eat junk food would be gone. This is all just "in theory" of course. Would this work /fit/?
