Bad news for cooking show fans

Do you easily watch cooking shows all afternoon? If you then imitate the dishes yourself, we have bad news for you.

Cooking shows make you fat
People who regularly watch cooking programs weigh on average five kilos heavier than people who don't, according to research.

Too large portions
When you regularly watch cooking shows, you can get the feeling that special dishes are the social norm. Furthermore, you prepare too large a portion too quickly if you imitate a recipe. It was previously discovered that meals from famous chefs contain more calories than a meal from the supermarket. Add that to the fact that you make and eat too large portions and those five kilos are there in no time.
