    The Evolution of Eating

    February 11 through November 30, 2012

    A wide-ranging exhibit on the food challenges of the 21st century, including changing
    eating habits and alarming levels of obesity, opens at the Yale Peabody Museum in 2012.
    Using an engaging multi-media and family-friendly approach, visitors will explore the
    neuroscience of appetite and how the body stores food and energy. They will also examine
    behavioral choices in nutrition and the influence of social, environmental and cultural
    settings. Visitors will investigate human origins as hunter-gatherers; explore societal
    pressures, such as the progressive growth of portion sizes; tackle media influences on food
    preferences; and consider the serious health consequences associated with obesity. Big
    Food will conclude with a challenge for visitors to reflect on their role in personal and
    community health, environmental justice and the food system’s sustainability.

    big ideas, big food.
