Food, glorious food
Whilst idling on the sofa one evening last Autumn I discovered that one of the many special mode settings on my compact camera is ‘food’. Yes, many Japanese stereotypes are based on truth so it’s not surprise that this was a standard feature of the cheeky little Panasonic Lumix.
One of my regional tours towards the end of 2008 offered a chance to put this mode into action. Weeks of travelling and lack of exercise were taking their toll. What if I were to record everything I ate for a week? As well as appealing to the male list-making side of my brain, it might make me think more carefully about snacking and bloating.
So, tenacious reader, this is a visual review of what I consumed in late October last year. Vegetarians may wish to look away now.

Is that an old-school ring pull I spy on the can of Coke?

I remember seeing another version of this idea – a chap took pictures of all the things he ate for a year, but also all his …. er….”waste” as well! Just to demonstrate the balance I suppose.
Classy.
