The Powerseed is a small, egg-shaped device (which has been around for about a year) that sits on your dinner table and beeps at regular intervals, indicating when you should to take a bite. Every five minutes, it flashes a different signal to remind you to evaluate just how hungry you really are. This is, of course, a stark contrast to my current eating methodology, which rarely involves chewing more than once, so it might be worth a shot. Helping you not fall prey to the “eyes-bigger-than-stomach” cycle holds a lot of promise, if you’re the patient, starving type. And, although the picture seems to indicate that they hunt in packs, a single user system is available for $50, plus shipping.
