Abstract
Overweight and obesity rates are increasing all over the world (USDA 2010) and almost three million people die each year due to its consequences (WHO 2012). In the USA, for instance, where inexpensive, high-calorie food is ubiquitous (Young and Nestle 2002) about 154 million people aged over 20 are overweight or obese, leading to estimated direct and indirect costs of $254 billion (Mozaffarian et al. 2013). It is widely accepted that something must be done to change this reality and persuade people to switch to a healthier lifestyle (Wansink 2010).
