*Recipe for aggression?*

Here's one for the ages.  According to
UPI<http://www.upi.com/Odd_News/2014/04/30/Cornell-study-finds-children-who-eat-chicken-on-the-bone-are-more-aggressive/7851398872882/>
:

Researchers at Cornell University conducted a study about biting versus
chewing habits in children and found that kids who eat chicken on the bone
are more likely to disobey adults and be aggressive.

The study, which was published
in<http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1471015314000397>
Eating
Behaviors, found that children were “twice as likely to disobey adults and
twice as aggressive toward other kids” when eating food they had to hold
and bite.

So, is this limited to chicken on the bone, or does it include PB & J,
apples, bananas, hot dogs, pizza, fries...ribs?  That didn't seem to come
up.

Researches found that children were more docile when eating cut-up pieces
of food, results which would seem to indicate that there is a connection
between having to use teeth to eat and aggressive behavior.

Using teeth to eat?  Are they kidding?  Not everything is a drinkable fruit
smoothie or gruel with amino acids a la science fiction.  Even salad and
other assorted rabbit food requires chompers to eat.

*Sure this isn't about parents teaching their kids manners vs. those who
just make a pass at it?*

There was no mention of whether or not aggression was measured BEFORE the
kids started eating their drumsticks and wings.

Not everyone agrees with the study’s findings.

“I think people have been eating chicken wings, chicken drumsticks for a
millennia and I don’t think it’s made them any more aggressive than they
otherwise would have been,” clinical psychologist Dr. Brian Russell told
Fox 
News<http://foxnewsinsider.com/2014/04/29/eating-chicken-bone-makes-kids-more-aggressive-study-shows>
.

Maybe a we are primitive sorts at heart who need to tear at meat now and
then.

Of all the ridiculous studies about food that are going to make already
neurotic parents apply entirely too much psychology to their over analyzed
kids....

*Pass the spareribs, please.*
