Don’t Put Candy On Your Desk At The Office

Researchers say you should get that candy dish off of your desk!

Cornell Researchers studied secretaries who won an award and were given all the candy you can eat for a month.  The candy was put on their desks in a clear bowl.  A typical secretary ate 9 Hersheys Kisses a day...which is about 225 calories.  But if the bowl was moved to 6 feet away from the desk, the secretary ate only 4 candies a day......125 fewer calories each day. Why the big difference?  The secretaries told researchers the 6 feet distance gave them pause to ask if they really needed to eat the candy or not.
