A new study suggests that smaller bowls could be an easy way to help children eat less, and therefore weigh less.
Announced
last week, the US study involved 69 preschool children who ate cereal
and milk from 8- and 16-ounce bowls until they'd had their fill.
Children who ate from the larger bowls asked for 87 percent more cereal
and milk, the findings showed.
"The quickest way parents can help
kids eat less might be to grab them a smaller bowl," said Brian
Wansink, professor of behavioral economics at Cornell University and the
lead author.
In a second study, involving 18 elementary school
children, researchers used secret scales embedded within the tables to
weigh each cereal portion before and after the kids ate to measure
exactly how much they consumed. The kids with larger bowls requested 69
percent more cereal and milk and also ate 52 percent more.
"Bigger
bowls cause kids to request nearly twice as much food, leading to
increased intake as well as higher food waste," said coauthor Koert Van
Ittersum of University of Groningen. "Based on these findings, using
smaller dishware for children may be a simple solution for caregivers
who are concerned about their kids' caloric intake."
The study was published recently in the Journal of Pediatrics.
Previous
research published in the Journal of Consumer Research last year
supports the theory for adults too, finding that subjects who dined from
smaller plates and bowls ate less. Another study published in the same
journal found that people who use bigger forks also tend to eat less.
