The 'IGGI' bowl is a portion-focused solution for the kitchen that will work to reduce the amount of food that a person eats by simply tricking the eye using a clever design. The bowl features a false bottom that has a hump in the middle which will prevent it from being filled completely while still giving the illusion of a fully packed bowl of food. This will reduce the portion size by 33% and thus help a person when it comes to eating healthy meal sizes without having them feel as though they are missing out.
The 'IGGI' bowl is the design work of Roderic Andrews and features a Japanese-inspired stoneware design that's finished in red, which has been proven to help further reduce how much a person eats by ~22%.
