A meal consisting of chicken fried steak, carrots, and a baked potato with butter and sour cream would stimulate the hormone cholecystokinin because of the presence of fat in the stomach (or also referred to as duodenum).
Cholecystokinin is a peptide hormone of the gastrointestinal system, secreted by cells of the upper small intestine. It is responsible for stimulating the digestion of fat and protein.
