At work we had class on Inclusion and Innovation, taught by a guy with a neuroscience degree, which explains how diverse groups tend to perform better and how not to be an asshole to people different than you.

They used a version of this riddle to show that we all have shit in our brains that we did not put there, don’t necessarily want, yet can sometimes cause us to jump to the wrong answer if we don’t think things through.

The version we got was

John’s mother has three sons, Snap Crackle, and ?

Everyone who had grown up hearing that Kellogg’s commercial answered incorrectly “Pop”.

As the instructor pointed out our brains burn a lot of energy when we use our big prefrontal cortex to think about things. Much like a computer today does our brains evolved to try to reduce energy usage. In this case by grabbing an already made, (but incorrect), memory map of Snap Crackle and Pop rather than thinking about it.

For that girl in the video her brain jumped to things that start with “J” and wouldn’t let go.

So it’s a wanting that we’ve picked up a lot of crap in our life and if we are rushed or stressed our brains want to jump to what it already has rather than think about things.
