Pizza Is the Most Addictive Food
This new study is no surprise to me at all. In fact, if I ever want to become a millionaire, all I have to do is make the most addictive foods on this list taste like fruits and veggies.
A new study out of the University of Michigan figured out which foods are the most and least addictive.
The ten most addictive foods are:
- Pizza
- Chocolate
- Chips
- Cookies
- Ice cream
- French fries
- Cheeseburgers
- Soda
- Cake
- Cheese
The ten least addictive are:
- Cucumbers
- Carrots
- Beans
- Apples
- Brown rice
- Broccoli
- Bananas
- Salmon
- Corn
- Strawberries
The researchers say almost all of the most addictive foods have two things in common: They're processed, and they're high in fat.
They say pizza is number one because of a protein in the milk called casein. When the casein breaks down in your system, it can actually trigger the same parts of your brain as drugs.
Does any of this study surprise you? Me either! Like I mentioned earlier, we just need to figure out how to switch the taste of the two categories.
