I wouldn't cite Wansink... the guy had 15 retractions in the past year for making shit up.

Oh, good to know. Are you aware of more details? Replications or critiques of those studies? (As I said, I came across them in pop-sci books.)

The unit I'm affiliated with was tasked by the university to run replications and ultimately assist with the retractions. This was all done by my colleagues but I heard about it quite often. Past that I am going to refrain on commenting more as I'm unqualified to do so.
Two published replication studies (used for retractions) can be found here:
