It takes a while for signals to reach the brain that the body is fulfilled with the amount of food it has received. In that while, you could either eat a lot of food (by eating quickly) which you don't need! This turns into fat! Or you could eat a little amount of food (by eating slowly). This might turn into fat, but, most likely, it will be converted into glycogen stored in the liver.
