People Think Meals Taste Better If They Are Expensive

It is said that there’s no such thing as a free lunch, but even if you manage to bag a bargain meal, it will not taste as good as a more expensive meal, according to scientists.

A new study has found that restaurant 【1】 who pay more for their meals think the food is tastier than if it is offered for a smaller price. The experts think that people tend to associate cost with quality and this changes their 【2】 of how food tastes.

The price of the food was set by the 【3】 at either $4 or $8 for the all-you-can-eat meal. Customers were asked to 【4】 how good the food tasted, the quality of the restaurant and to leave their names.

In a(n) 【10】 study, scientists from the university showed that people who eat in dim lighting consume 175 less calories (卡路里) than people who eat in brightly lit areas.
