How can I stop snacking while I cook?
Asked by anonymous


I have a horrible habit of snacking while I cook on the ingredients - grabbing a pinch of cheese while I grate it, stealing chocolate chips while I make cookies, things like that. I make a lot of pies and sweets for friends, and have no problem passing them up once their baked, but I can't find a way to resist while I'm in my cooking groove! It adds up calories I can't afford, and is almost impossible to measure.



Answer
Some methods that people use to avoid snacking during food prep (and clean-up!) are to chew gum, sip on a low calorie beverage, have a snack before starting if hunger is an issue, and remind yourself that dinner will taste better if you don’t ruin your appetite with a snack. I saw someone wear a surgical mask to stop picking but I hope you won’t need to do that!
