I have a new favorite web site: Suicide Foods. Happily, someone just posted my favorite DC-based trio from Metropolitan Meat, Seafood, and Poultry. They make me smile and they make me think…mmm…lobster….

I’m the first person to make my chicken or turkey “dance” before preparing it or to stage an elaborate battle between me and the crab or crawfish or lobster before pounding it with a mallet and tearing it to shreds, but I feel funny about advertisements seducing me with anthropomorphic veggies and animals calling out “eat me, Hallie!”

I’ve got it all figured out:

Humans are getting fatter.
This has been happening at an accelerated pace for the past 20+ years.
The earth is getting hotter and the seas are rising.
This has been happening at an accelerated pace for the past 50+ years.

Coincidence? I don’t think so.

Fat people are more buoyant than skinny people.

Up next, gills, blow holes, webbed hands and feet. Just call me AquaGirl
