A UK-based inventor has discovered that a foul odour puts off a person from eating their food.
Alex Fontaine said that she was able to lose 1 stone and 8 pounds by squirting a disgusting 29.99-pound-spray in her kitchen, whenever she got the urge to snack on chocolates and crisps, the Daily Star reported.
