Moment of Zen:
You Are What You Eat?
Flamingos turn pink because of the shrimp they eat, humans who seriously overdo it on carrots can take on an orange cast to them. So what does this photo series of people's refrigerator contents by photographer
Mark Menjivar tell us? Menjivar's photos are collected from the refrigerators and freezers of a wide range of folks in the US. Each picture is captioned with a few notes about its owner, including their job (everything from midwives to metal drummers), how many people the fridge serves, whereand some other kind of biographical information about the fridge's owner (e.g. "She can bench press 300 lbs," "Feels more comfortable among flora and fauna of his era than people."). A distinctly different kind of food-based voyeurism from
What the World Eats but an interesting complement in examining that question.
