Kids and Elmo and the Difficulty of Research

Nutrition research can be difficult, especially when kids, and Elmo, and careless research techniques ruin the outcome of the study. A study on kids' nutritional choices was recently retracted because there were problems with the data collection. This happens a lot, and it isn't doing science any favors.

This episode was adapted from a column Aaron wrote in the New York Times. Sources and more information can be found there: https://www.nytimes.com/2017/10/23/upshot/the-cookie-crumbles-a-retracted-study-points-to-a-larger-truth.html
