The study came out of the research agenda of his co-author Shira Gabriel, which has saw by social surrogatesthings namely make human feel favor they belong. Some people neutralize loneliness along bonding with their favorite TV show, creating virtual relationships with a celebrity alternatively a film character, or looking by pictures and mementos of loved ones. Troisi and Gabriel surprised whether food could have the same efficacy at production people calculate of their nearest and dearest.

But people who were generally safe in their relationshipssomething that was assessed ahead the experimentwere capable to liberate themselves from loneliness by manuscript about a comfort food. "What we base namely that people have the capability apt create a comfort food because themselves by having it be someone that's consistently related with their near others," says Troisi.
