    This has been known for ages. We used to play a more upbeat background music tape on a Saturday in the Golden Egg, 40 years ago, as it made people eat quicker.

    They pump fresh bread smells around too.

    And then they play around with the position of everything to make you buy more.

    Susan.

    If it was Susan they wouldn't say 'based in San Fransisco'.

    Ask them,

    They are making the effort to let you know she is Chinese. You're not smart enough to understand I'm point out they are pointing it out.

    Gets Brahms and list

    https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...udy-finds.html

    Brahms and bliss: Wine's finer with classical music because it enhances our perception of taste, study finds
    • Wine expert Susan Lin, based in San Francisco, US, conducted a blind taste test
    • People tasted five glasses containing the same champagne, a Veuve Clicquot
    • At the same time, music played - making participants detect different tastes
    • When drinking in silence, participants found the wine less bubbly and less fruity
