GeezerVison is showing en.wikipedia.org — SnackWell effect - Wikipedia The SnackWell effect is a phenomenon whereby dieters will eat more low-calorie cookies, such as SnackWell's, than they otherwise would for normal cookies.[1][2] Also known as moral license, it is also described as a term for the way people go overboard once they are given a free pass[3] or the tendency of people to overconsume when eating more of low-fat food due to the belief that it is not fattening.[4] The term, which emerged as a reaction to dietary trends in the 1980s and 1990s,[5] is also used for similar effects in other settings, such as energy consumption, where it is termed the "rebound effect". For example, according to a 2008 study, people with energy-efficient washing machines wash more clothes.[6][7] People with energy-efficient lights leave them on longer, and lose 5–12% of the expected energy savings of 80%.[8] See alsoReferences
