Random Fun Food Pictures
I’m always finding random food pictures, but usually toss them on my QJ tumblr or save them and never get around to posting them. Here’s some to enjoy for today, though.
Here’s some other banana art, although not nearly as creepy/scary.
Remember my sister’s Pacman party? These would’ve been awesome for breakfast.
Man, and I thought my meatbaby was creepy. This one is a bit more 3D and dare I say, realistic looking. Ew.
Old Spice and Axe chocolate head sculpture
I don’t generally like posting things like this. I found the pictures on theChive, however, I know they aren’t their pictures (and while I’m stating the site name and they’ve watermarked them as their own, I’m not putting a link here). I’ve seen some of them elsewhere, but they don’t list the sources and I can’t hunt down several of them to their original source. If you know who made these, please let me know so I can give credit where credit due (and maybe find some more awesomeness while I’m at it, hehe).
A to Z food survey – Let’s see how far you can read?
(Click the pictures for the original posts)
From Kris Gets Healthy
A: is for Apple, what’s your favorite variety? Any kind I can get! Green for with peanut butter, and just about any other for snacking or baking.
B: is for Bread, regardless of nutrition, calories, or whole grains what is your favorite type to have a nice big piece of? Homemade white bread, straight from the oven, with butter.
C: is for Cereal what is your favorite kind currently (just one!) Cheerios! Mostly for making funky stuff with them beyond just a bowl with milk and sugar.
D: is for Doughnuts, you might not currently be eating them but what kind do you fancy? Those really cheap, crappy powdered white ones. Or cake doughnuts. Ooo, or homemade ones using canned biscuits. /drools
E: is for Eggs, how would you like yours prepared? Sunny side up! Even though I can’t cook them that way myself because I’m always afraid of undercooking them, ha.
F: is for Fat Free, what is your favorite fat-free product? Ew, no. Just no.
G: is for Groceries, where do you purchase yours at? Aldis and Krogers mostly. Gotta love cheap. Although now I’m learning the ways of Safeway.
H: is for Hot Beverages, what is your favorite hot drink? Hot chocolate please!
I: is for Ice Cream, pick a favorite flavor and add a fun topping. Chocolate with chocolate with more chocolate with maybe a sprinkle of chocolate and some chocolate syrup. No, I’m not exaggerating. Bring on the richness!
J: is for Jams or Jellies, do you eat them, and if so what kind and flavor? Strawberry preserves rank high.
K: is for Kashi, name your favorite Kashi product? I don’t buy them because they’re so expensive, so uh, any freebies that are sent to me? :P
L: is for Lunch, what was yours today? Chicken noodle soup.
M: is for microwave, what is your favorite microwave meal/snack? Popcorn, of course.
N: is for nutrients, do you like carbs, fats, or proteins best? Uh, can I have all three? I guess probably carbs, because I adore my pastas, but I could never pass up a good steak.
O: is for oil, what kind do you like to use? Olive oil and vegetable oil, depending.
P: is for protein, how do you get yours? Where’s the beef? (and other meats and such…)
Q: is for Quaker, how do you like your oats? ~In the form of a wonderball. I’ll be sure to post the recipe some time.
R: is for roasting, what is your favorite thing to roast? ~Birds galore…..chicken, turkey, duck, penguins…
S: is for sandwich, what’s your favorite kind? ~Hmm, probably sub sandwiches loaded with tons of veggies, meats, cheese, etc, with a classic PBJ coming in second.
T: is for travel, how do you handle eating while traveling? Delightfully! While it’s not wise to go overboard while driving and such, I have absolutely no issues indulging while abroad. I eat pretty healthy most of the time and I would rather get to taste all sorts of wonderful goodies while out of my normal realm than be stuck counting calories or saying no to treats I may never have the chance to experience again.
U: is for unique, what is one of your weirdest food combos? Oy. Cottage cheese and French dressing when added to just about anything? Maybe my love of spaghetti and soft boiled eggs? I don’t know, lol
V: is for vitamins, what kind do you take? Just a multi-vitamin when I’m actually on track with taking them, heh.
W: is for wasabi, yay or nay? Oh yes please! I know it’s too hot for some, but I love it.
X: is for XRAY. if we xrayed your belly right now, what food would we see? Chicken noodle soup and fresh bread. Well, probably not fresh at this point. It’s probably pretty far beyond fresh by now.
Y: is for youth, what food reminds you of your childhood? Peanut butter and syrup, just in a bowl and eaten with a spoon. And mayonnaise sandwiches, hehe.
Z: is for zucchini, how do you prepare it? Battered and fried, yum.
“Food is too salty” – Watch your mouth or get jailed
Easy there with your adjectives, food bloggers. If you dare to call a restaurant’s offerings "too salty" in Taiwan (….), you could wind up behind bars, the Daily What notes.
A woman with an amateur food blog of moderate success (the Taipei Times reports she has received more than 60,000 hits) was sentenced to 30 days in jail, given two years probation and fined the equivalent of $6,782 CDN.
I know, I know, different countries have different laws and expectations. People are jailed for all sorts of things we’d consider “silly.”
Here’s the kicker, though. The rest of her review said things about the restaurant having roaches and such, but the judge had no issue with that. Apparently it’s okay to make claims about a place being unsanitary (even though it was later inspected and found at that point to be clean) and even to call the owner a bully (for letting customers park their cars haphazardly, leading to traffic jams).
To call the food “too salty,” though, was considered defamation because the woman had only tasted one dish and therefore, shouldn’t speak about the restaurant’s dishes as a whole. The fine was to pay the owner for lost business. Oops.
