Brian Wansink Biography

Brian Wansink, has been referred to as the "Sherlock Holmes of Food" and the "Wizard of Why" for his work in the fields of food psychology and eating behavior.

According to Wansink, the average person makes around 250 decisions about food every day – breakfast or no breakfast? Pop-tart or bagel? Part of it or all of it? Kitchen or car? Brian Wansink believes that most of us don't overeat because we're hungry. We overeat because of family and friends, packages and plates, names and numbers, labels and lights, colors and candles, shapes and smells, distractions and distances, cupboards and containers.

Wansink , the Dyson Professor of Marketing and Nutritional Science at Cornell, oversees the Cornell Food & Brand Lab. He is also author of the bestselling book Mindless Eating: Why We Eat More Than We Think. In addition to Mindless Eating, Wansink is author of over 100 academic articles and books, including Marketing Nutrition, Asking Questions, and Consumer Panels. Wansink's work at the lab helps companies develop "win-win" ways to help people eat more nutritiously and to better control how much they eat. His academic research on food psychology and behavior change has been published in the world's top marketing, medical, and nutrition journals and has won national and international awards for its relevance to consumers

From 2007-2009 Wansink was granted a leave-of-absence from Cornell to accept a Presidential appointment as Executive Director of USDA's Center for Nutrition Policy and Promotion, the Federal agency in charge of developing 2010 Dietary Guidelines and promoting the Food Guide Pyramid (MyPyramid.gov). While there, web hits to Dietary Guidelines increased 44% to 5.4 million/day, and he was named ABC World News Person of the Week.

Wansink is a popular speaker at numerous conferences worldwide, helping organizations reach consumers trying to transition to a healthier lifestyle.

BOOK Brian Wansink
Speaking Topics

  • Mindless Eating and Mindless Solutions

    Regardless of how tuned in we think we are to our environment, we are a nation of mindless eaters. The good news, however, is the same tricks that lead us to eat too much can be easily reversed to help us mindlessly eat less instead of mindlessly overeating. Based on the award-winning, internationally broadcasted studies from Cornell’s Food and Brand Lab, Director and Professor Brian Wansink’s presentation starts with the myths of mindless eating, and moves to the small changes people can make to mindlessly eat less. As the first and last sentence of the book Mindless Eating states: “The best diet is the diet you don’t know you’re on.”

  • From Mindless Eating To Healthy Eating

    The most immediate opportunity to reverse mindless eating in our communities and in our lives, is in our homes. Based on his award-winning Cornell research and on his years as Executive Director of the US Dietary Guidelines, Dr. Brian Wansink shows the myths of Mindless Eating. Based on new research – illustrated with compelling videos – he shows the small consistent changes that individuals, families, and communities can make that transforms Mindless Eating into healthy eating.

  • Tips, Tricks, and Mindless Eating Solutions For Parents

    As parents, we control 72% of all of the food choices made by our children. It’s either for the better or for the worse. Based on his award-winning Cornell research and on his years as Executive Director of the US Dietary Guidelines, Dr. Brian Wansink gives solutions on how the Nutritional Gatekeeper of the home can turn-around the way their family eats – without their family even knowing it. Through behind the scenes experiments and hidden cameras, Dr. Wansink vividly addresses the “clean plate club,” vegetable tricks, unfamiliar foods, food jags, snacking, and even school lunches.

  • Marketing Nutrition

    Marketing nutrition is not a milk moustache ad or a 2-for-1 coupon on yogurt. The opportunities for smart, well-intended companies can be magnified by understanding not their core market, but by understanding the nutrition predisposed marketing.
