Step four: Be willing to throw food away.

Excellent point -- I can't think of a way to move away from the hedons/health frontier faster than by feeling obligated to eat food you don't even want anymore.

I agree with Swimmer963 -- my quite strongly enforced rule not to throw food out nudges me to buy less and waste less. In fact I think it's quite similar to the way that your rules 2 and 3 nudge the brain to make better decisions.
