Bite Counter


It was interesting to find that American blogs that posted about this product unanimously* thought of it as a medieval torture device for insubordinate children. By making this judgment American bloggers are choosing to over look the importance of proper mastication in the digestive process, as well as other hidden benefits of slower chewing. After about 20 minutes of eating your stomach releases hormones that notify your brain you are full. Using the the Kami Kami Sensor could stretch the time it takes children to eat their food. An increase in time that could curb their intake to a smaller, much healthier, portion size. If we put one of these devices into the hands of our elementary school children we could reverse the trend of obesity for the next generation. 
Order this product for your school here, 11,500 yen ($188.95) per unit.


*I was lazy and only found two blogs that posted about this product, so the voting margine is not that impressive.
