Guys, did you know that caffeine makes food taste less
sweet if you're a caffeine consumer, So caffeine dolls your
brain's receptors to hormones that cause sleepiness. It also doles
your perception of sweetness. That can lead you to underestimate
the true amount of sugar that you're consuming, either in
the coffee itself or as a side dish, or even

(00:35):
cause sugar cravings. The solution, apparently is to try decaf
a few times a week. Then, research has showed that
people couldn't tell the difference between regular and decav. I've

me out. So I don't know. I don't know what
the solution is. But I've also seen people pour half
of the sugar thing of the Little Joy whatever it is,
this cylindrical thing of sugar. I've seen people pour half

(00:57):
of that into their coffee and then and then taste
it and be like not enough, And I'm like, but
you just poured. I don't know. I don't know grams
and stuff, but there's a lot of grams in there, okay,

it's like this many grams or I don't know where
that is. But I'm just saying, you poured half the
thing in there. If you can't taste it, I don't
think poured in the other half is going to change.
