A Positive Alternative to Food Porn

  • Posting this here, because the site's recipes lean heavily vegan or vegetarian.

    Do you ever look at some version of high-cal food photography (like, for example, "This is why you're fat") and think "wow, I know this is terrible, but I want to try that!!". It happens to me less and less nowadays, but it's still risky, for me and for a lot of others.

    Here's the healthy version, sure to tempt you not with high-fat, high calorie goodies, but with gorgeous veggie-based dishes and people participating in healthy activities.

    Go take a look, or better yet, make something or do something, take a photo, and submit it!

    This Is Why You're Thin
  • Yup, that's a lot of fun
  • that Stew recipe sounds good!
  • Beautiful! I love Jennifer McCann!
  • Key difference: unlike "This is why you're fat," which just summons up cravings because I *know* what the food tastes like, these photos actually intrigue me because I *don't know* what the food will taste like. I use the different verb form intentionally, because I am obviously trying out all of these recipes once I'm home. Thanks for the link!
  • Thanks for sharing this; it's a nice change and I can get some good ideas from it!
  • Thanks for the link! i'm always trying to find new exciting ways to eat veggies!! you're right it does look tempting and yummy
  • Thank you so much for posting that! Not only are three good recipes, but it's refreshing to read a blog about being healthy. I feel like a little kid eavesdropping on the grownups' conversation
