Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn how eating different snack foods affects acute hunger, energy intake and eating behaviour in healthy adults. The study will be conducted remotely over 5 days.

The main questions it aims to answer are:

1. Does eating a snack bar intervention change how hungry participants feel later in the same day?
2. Does eating a snack bar intervention change participants' energy intake, nutrient intake and eating behaviour on the same day?
3. Does eating a snack bar intervention change participants mood, energy levels and alertness later in the same day?

Researchers will compare an intervention snack bar to a control snack bar to see if the intervention improves hunger, energy intake, eating behaviour, and other subjective measures.

Participants will:

* Eat 2 snack bars for breakfast on 2 separate days, with 2 days in between
* Not eat anything after 9pm the night before each test day
* Fill out short online surveys (under 5 minutes) before breakfast and at set times over the next 3 hours
* Not eat for 3 hours after breakfast
* Write down everything they eat that day
