Researchers from the Miyagi -University in Japan asked 800 people to listen to 20 songs from four genres — classical, jazz, hip-hop and rock/heavy metal.
They were then asked to consider which of 16 food items they fancied eating, -rating each from “not at all” to “very much”.
Scientists found that while listening to orchestral soundtracks including Elgar’s Salut d’amour and JS Bach’s Air On The G String, healthy and indulgent sweets came out top.
Yoghurt, low-fat milk, soy milk latte, soy cereal bar, chocolate milk, strawberry milk latte and chocolate bars were a hit with classical fans.
Jazz songs such as Dave Brubeck’s Take Five and Miles Davis’s Walkin’ had people keen for healthy savoury foods such as vegetable crisps, soy hamburger, seafood pasta and veggie sandwiches.
Those listening to hip-hop track California Love by 2Pac and Dr Dre, or heavy metal band Metallica’s Master Of Puppets preferred meat pasta, burgers, chips and beef sandwiches. Here is what your musical tastes will have you munching.
