Who Eats Most, Men or Women?

In what qualifies for the ‘duh’ award, recent research has apparently answered the question ‘Who Eats Most, Men or Women?’

It also proved that women eat a healthier diet than men, and actually prefer to eat more fresh fruit and vegetables. The study is reported by CBS here : Who Eats Most, Men or Women

The research was apparently a telephone study of over 14,000 men and women and covered ten states in the US. So thats proven then, yeah? Not in our opinion! It seems more likely that this proves that men and women, telephoned at random and asked specific questions about their diet, give very different answers.

The only thing this study proves is that men admit to eating more and not enjoying healthy options. We woman, constantly swamped with diet and ‘wellbeing’ advice are far more likely to suffer a ‘guilt response’ of sorts when asked questions about our diet, and, well… lets say ‘give the correct answer’ in preference to the actuality.

So, who eats most, men or women? In our opinion it probably is Men, but this study proves nothing and should be ignored.
