Put a Fork in It!

The new year has arrived, and many have turned their thoughts to fulfilling new year's resolutions. For some, losing weight is top of the list. A French company HAPIlabs has developed a new technology to aid in this pursuit.

Called the HAPIfork, this electronic fork monitors your eating habits. The company contends that weight gain can be caused by eating too fast. This "smart fork" alerts you when you are eating too quickly. It also measures every meal and tracks it via an app on your phone. The Verge saw this fork at CES 2013 and reports on it here.
