Thinking & Feeling

This is why you are fat, This is why you are thin.

There is this website called THIS IS WHY YOU ARE FAT (Where Dreams become heart attacks)

Check it out, it is full of ludicrously unhealthy lard filled concoctions, most of which look revolting... See these examples:

Meat Cake (made with minced meat and mash)

I showed the site and pics to Quinn and here are some quotes from him:
"Eeeuw, gross, that's sick..."
" I can't believe people would eat that!" "

"Eeeuuw, gross, .... not even DADDY could eat that!"
"Who would EAT that???"
".... click on next, I wanna see some more!" Wink


Check THIS out...


Eeeeeeuuuuuuuw!!!


Although I'll admit it is hard to pull yourself away from the site once you start browsing it, it is a little addictive (as junk food is I guess!)... Still you can actually feel your arteries hardening and a your level of health and wellbeing fading with each minute that you stare at them!

So now Jennifer McCann of Vegan Lunchbox fame has started a site called:

This Is Why You Are Thin (Inspiring images of the things that make and keep us healthy).

It's supposed to be a visual catalogue of healthy food and activities that make you want to eat or do something GOOD for you. It's a nice idea, I like it. So I sent a bunch of submissions in. One of which she has used already... no prizes if you guessed what it is...

Other cool images so far include:

So which do you prefer???
