I recall there was a story from Predictably Irrational where the experimenters were trying to figure out how to get participants to avoid double-dipping tortilla chips.

Along with a control condition, they tried setting up a sign that said "NO DOUBLE DIPPING", and I think they also tried paying people or getting them to promise not to double dip, stuff like that.

The thing they found most successful was to set up two bowls of dip: One labeled "For double-dipping", and one "Not for double-dipping".

They supposed that once they had to do a physical action where they sorted themselves according to "what kind of person they are", they wanted all of their visible actions to be consistent with that.

Interesting experiment but who the fuck doesn't just eat the whole chip at once?

"Restaurant style" chips are enormous. Far too big to shove in your mouth at once.

sounds like you might benefit from having a bigger mouth

Double dippers, apparently.

I like a big salsa to chip ratio, so I break the chip into smaller pieces (usually 2) and dip/scoop each one. No double dip, good salsa to chip ratio.

Side note, I believe the mythbusters did double dipping, and as I recall, it's really not a problem unless you stir or leave the chip in the dip/salsa for an extended period.

It's been a long time but I recall a study featured on Freakonomics where a national park tried different signs to get people to not steal rocks. Signs like, "Taking rocks hurts the ecosystem" and "Taking rocks is a crime."

The only effective one was something along the lines of, "A million people visit this park every year and leave things alone." Suggesting that telling people to do the right thing is less effective than peer pressure.

On the one hand, it’s depressing because people seem to care more about fitting in than being rational.

But on the other hand, it’s reassuring that we’re so eager to solve things collaboratively that we’re willing to set aside our own personal opinions.

Our relentless obsession with social connection will either be the thing that kills us or the thing that saves us. And I honestly have NO idea which.
