Cover Story: Low socioeconomic conditions are associated with financial hardship, poor social support networks, and physical safety concerns. Throughout history, these conditions have also been correlated with food shortages. It has been hypothesized that those who survived these harsh conditions were those who developed trait appetite, the desire to eat in the absence of an energy deficit. This study empirically confirms that trait appetite is a fixed eating pattern that develops as a product of low socioeconomic conditions experienced during childhood, which were found to increase the desire for high-energy dense foods and decrease desire for low-energy dense foods. These eating preferences endure and carry into adulthood. View this paper
