Save Dessert For Last? the Effect of Food Presentation Order on Food Choice and Caloric Intake

This research investigates whether and how food order affects consumers’ food choice and consumption. Four experiments show that when a healthy (indulgent) dessert is the first item in a food sequence, higher (lower) calorie foods are subsequently chosen and overall caloric consumption is higher (lower).
