Gear  |  Other

Two researchers from Clemson University have created a bite counter, the bite counter. The device, which can be easily started and stopped at the beginning and end of a meal, has been found to be more than 90% accurate when it comes to counting bites. It can be used to help with weight loss?
$799.

Yeah. Thousands of people starving to death and we buy a device that tells us how many bites we eat. Am I the only one who finds this sick? Dx

Yeah, it relies upon manners, which if you had any would probably mean you had self restraint.  My old college buddies ate like mastodons and never rotated their cuff, so not only is the notion preposterous but the thing has no idea between a leek salad and a bowl of Rocky Road ice cream.  Such a poor use of resources...

$800 for a modified pedometer with an on/off button? Nice.

We'd all only be using it to have our own masturbation contests anyway... today 30 strokes, tomorrow ...
