Here's today's feel-good story:
62% of men and 57% of women of 2,000 adults that were surveyed believe that the way to someone's heart is through their stomach.
Many admitted that their mood can be improved with food, and more than 1/3 of people say that their most treasured memories revolve around eating.
72% of people claim themselves to be a "foodie" while 24% say they are a "feeder".
“Foods often bring back nostalgic experiences… and it’s great to see how passionate the nation is about food,” says Paul Baker, founder of St. Pierre Bakery who commissioned the survey.
“Whenever you ask someone about their favorite food, the reason for their answer is almost always linked to a treasured memory,” said Baker. “And that’s a beautiful thing.”
