Participants will be exposed to 3 conditions, in random order:

2. A Facebook page where only 20% of posts are related to food.
3. A control condition (colouring quietly).

During each of the above conditions participants will be provided with identical snacks. The snacks will be weighed before and after each condition, to determine whether there is a change in food intake across the 3 conditions.
