eating lab

This lab was excellent. In a procedure, Leeann had Seth and I attach some muscel reactive  adhesive sticky things (I honestly do not remember what they are called). These little stickies were attached to two points on our jaw and another to a different point on our body (both Seth and I opted for a pulse point). Seth went first and ate a different variety of foods and drank a large gatorade. With the data Seth gave us, it seems like he does not use a lot of energy to chew anything. He averaged around a .788 energy even used to eat his items.

I on the other hand seemed to use a a extream amount of energy for little things. an average of .865. I did have a jaw ache though so that may have factored into it. Out of the both of us, we both averaged a .827. We learned that it varies on the individual on how much jaw power you need to eat. We also learned that peanut butter makes me act like a dog with peanut butter stuck to the top of its mouth. Apparently it was amusing.
