    I read it a few years ago. I found the information interesting, but not all that helpful for me. The theme seemed to be if you just restrict fat, sugar, and salt, your eating habits will somehow self correct, which was not the case for me (I always ate healthy, I just always overrate). While I think that certain foods give people a propensity to overeat, I find that blaming food types is a little misleading. If you eat a caloric deficit, you will lose weight, period. That's really all that needs to be said on the topic.

    I read it (almost all of it) a couple years ago. Very eye opening. For me it helps me to have this information when making food choices. Thinking about why, how it's designed to tempt the consumer etc. it makes it easier to choose healthier foods most of the time.
