Hams Lie?! Hams self-reporting their food intake caused a lot of confusion and misinformation in numerous " studies" not because of geneticks but because  they simply lie Remember this the next time a pig says - this study shows I have no control over muh cuhrves!!! I can't figure out if they really don't recall/understand that they just inhaled a bunch of food..or do they deliberately lie? I've witnessed my huge hammy co-worker (post recent gastric surgery) say she barely eats and then inhale a whole piece of cake and 4 packets of peanut butter with crackers and a soda as she types away on her computer. She is steadily getting FATTER after her surgery.
