Overview
They don't sell food. They sell cravings.
Built to Binge pulls back the curtain on how the food industry designs products that hijack your brain, rewrite your taste buds, and keep you coming back for more.

Inside, you'll discover:
- Why Cheetos vanish in your mouth-and why that's the point
- How companies test the perfect "bliss point" to make you eat more
- Why McDonald's fries taste the same everywhere-and never get boring
- What packaging colors trigger hunger
- How sound, smell, and crunch are used to build addiction
It looks like a business manual. It reads like a psychological thriller. It is a satire dressed as a strategy guide.
