Honestly I was responding to the title which suggests that "irrational hungry judge" is a thing. If it is not, I revise all my ideas hahaah! :)

But then again, we must question a study that questions a proceeding one and so on. I'm not getting into the weeds of it to do that right now, just speculatin :)

What did you see about it that counters the "irrational hungry judge effect"?

Got ya. There are two studies here. The first study, referenced in the title, is from years ago that purported to show that judges were harsher just before mealtime. The second study was done to re-visit the first, and found that there are confounding variables that made the original findings look stronger than they otherwise would have been.

The article is about the second study, which found that the original study missed these confounding variables.

Omg the landscape of modern media is writing about writing ad infinitum/nauseaum. Thank you for expounding hahaha! :)
