A Pair of Goofy Goggles Could Help Your Diet

Sounds crazy, but researchers from the University of Tokyo have created a pair of digitally-enhanced goggles purported to alter your sense of sight so that food appears larger than it actually is.
When put to the test, subjects wearing the goggles ate 10 percent less of a cookie than those not wearing the goggles. On the flip side, when they made cookies look smaller, subjects ate 15 percent more.
The scientists have also created and tested headgear that makes food look more appealing and smell sweeter.
