Mobile app records our erratic eating habits

Summary:
Breakfast, lunch, and dinner? For too many of us, the three meals of the day go more like: office meeting pastry, mid-afternoon energy drink, and midnight pizza. In a new article, scientists present daily food and beverage intake data collected from over 150 participants of a mobile research app over three weeks. They show that a majority of people eat for 15 hours or longer.
This image shows the mobile app from Satchidananda Panda's group and its salient features are shown against a backdrop of an individualized "feedogram"--a raster plot of a person's daily activity (black bars), light exposure (yellow bars), and diet intake (photos). Further behind are some commonly seen lunch menu items.
