Snacking sure is great. But, snacking isn\\u2019t usually the healthiest choice available. Since chiding people to eat better doesn\\u2019t seem to be cutting down the worldwide obesity epidemic, it looks like we\\u2019ll need behavior analysis to save the day. What does the research tell us about food preferences and promoting healthy food choices at a young age? And is there any way that we could make the whole thing some big, fun game? This podcast comes with and without cheese. You know you\\u2019re choosing the one with cheese.

Remember, all this April, a portion of CE processing fees will be donated to the New England Center for Children, a school for individuals with autism and a home of behavior analytic research and training. By applying for CEs from ABA Inside Track, you\\u2019ll be donating to a worthy cause. It\\u2019s win-win!
