Creating great food memories

(ARA) - Your memory of real, flavorful, fresh food is a key tool for losing weight. At least that's one of the intriguing claims in Bruce Weinstein and Mark Scarbrough's new book, "Real Food Has Curves: How to Get off Processed Food, Lose Weight, and Love What You Eat."
We find pleasure in what we eat because we stock up those good memories of past real food. "You don't get a lot of flavor depth in the processed stuff," Scarbrough says. "And so you don't develop many pleasure memories from it."
In fact, real food is the key to eating less, the authors say. For one thing, you're satisfied more quickly with its big flavors. And more flavor means more good memories. And good memories lead us back to real food - a loop of health and nutrition.
Scarbrough's mom's mac-and-cheese is still in his recipe repertoire, all these years later. "She never made the processed stuff; she only made the real thing," he says. "And so I crave it, want it - and feel wonderfully satisfied when I eat it."
