Color Coded Menus May Prevent Overeating, Research Finds.

reports on a University of Pennsylvania study published in the Journal of Public Policy that showed a “traffic light”-style, color-coded menu may curb overeating at restaurants. This menu color codes dishes according to their calorie content. The study found that participants consumed ten percent fewer calories compared with conventional, non-color coded menus. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/traffic-light-label-menu_us_57629778e4b09c926cfe4d36
