analyzing eating and folklore.
I dare you to come up with 2 or more popular myths, legends, disney, or any story that can not be analyzed as an abusive relationship between an individual and food. I thought this might be fun considering the recent media health explosion. atkins this, zone that. or, come up with others in our culture that do represent a poor relationship with diet.
here's an example: The little mermaid.
witch=obese, lives in darkness, has ugly minions
princess=aspires toward completely unrealistic body image
case example 2: Persephone
forever linked with the underworld 1/3rd of the year for consuming pomegranate seeds.
case example 3: Cinderella
well fed, well to-do step sisters=ugly
underfed, poverty-ridden cinderella=ideal princess
heres your goal, come up with some stories you know of that represent a positive relationship between individuals and food.
heres what i came up with; lilo & stitch and toy story.
