Eating more yet enjoying it less study finds
A Pew Research Center survey shows only 40 percent greatly enjoy eating, down from 48 percent in 1989, with declines sharper among those who view themselves as overweight. Guilt and constant access to food are linked to reduced enjoyment, while many report increased cooking but uneven portion control and junk-food consumption driven by convenience.

Teenager date clash tests wedding etiquette
Dear Concerned: etiquette holds that invited guests attend a wedding, not that extras be found like Cubs tickets. The bride and groom aren’t obliged to accommodate a 15 year old to bring a date, even with offer to pay. Consider skipping drama and focus on the wedding. the teen should perhaps see a movie instead.
