I Don’t Want Popcorn
FatherWithTwins thought he was in for a solo popcorn experience at the movies. His wife said she didn’t want any but then went on to eat half of his stash! This ritual dance has been playing out in theaters and living rooms since the dawn of popcorn time.
A phenomenon called “social facilitation” is why we eat more when dining with someone else. So, maybe the wife didn’t think she wanted popcorn, but his munching became too contagious to resist!
