"When you make your own sandwich, you anticipate its taste as you're
working on it. And when you think of a particular food for a while, you
become less hungry for it later. Researchers at Carnegie Mellon
University, for example, found that imagining eating M&Ms makes you
eat fewer of them. It's a kind of specific satiation, just as most
people find room for dessert when they couldn't have another bite of
their steak. The sandwich that another person prepares is not
"preconsumed" in the same way."
With the rain hitting the east coast - and the snow hitting my home in CO - I'm thinking a grilled cheese sandwich is probably the best kind of sandwich to force someone else to make for you right now.
