Food is one of life’s greatest pleasures—and occasionally, one of its greatest horrors (interpret that as you will).
Somewhere in the middle of that spectrum sits the Instagram page Chaotic Food Memes. As the name promises, it delivers unhinged food pics with captions that are just as wild. One moment, you’re laughing at a perfectly innocent sandwich; the next, you’re questioning your entire existence. It’s unpredictable, it’s absurd, and it’s absolutely worth scrolling through.
Dig in and enjoy!

From when? Post war it was horrific - no money thanks. Nowadays it is generally good but like every single country it has cheap and nasty. If people have a bad meal today, they should think very carefully about the restauarant they've chosen. I learned that early on in the US. Pick better restaurants.

We often divide food into two extremes. Good or bad, healthy or unhealthy, safe or dangerous. We praise ourselves for eating the so-called “good” foods and punish ourselves for indulging in the “bad” ones, thinking it’s the only way to stay in shape. We think that this kind of discipline will keep us healthy and add years to our lives. But in reality, this all-or-nothing approach does more harm than good.

The idea of labeling food as good or bad stems from diet culture, which isn’t as much about health as it is about being thin and about dreaming of lower numbers on the scale. And in the pursuit of those numbers, many people go to extremes, cutting out every “unhealthy” food as if eating a slice of cake on their own birthday is some kind of failure.

Just make a hole in the middle to solve this. Use a micro wave able glass if you need support. You can even add a little water in the glass to avoid the food drying out too much. The microwave field is strongest at the edges so avoid having food in the middle.

Yes, eating fewer calories than you burn leads to weight loss, but if you deprive yourself of all the foods you enjoy, it’s likely to backfire. Restriction can lead to intense cravings, and when you finally give in, the urge to overeat comes roaring back.

Research consistently shows that most people who diet end up regaining the weight, often more than they lost in the first place. One study even found that those who followed a diet high in monounsaturated fats regained less weight than those who followed a low-fat or control diet. So, skipping that occasional treat isn’t as effective as diet culture makes it seem.

Instead of swinging between extremes, experts recommend practicing food neutrality—the idea that all foods have the same moral value, regardless of their nutritional content. No food is inherently “good” or “bad,” “healthy” or “unhealthy.”

If you break food down to its basics, everything we eat provides some form of nourishment. Whether it’s chips, candy, chicken, or broccoli, all foods contain at least one essential nutrient: protein, carbs, or fats. Some foods have more nutrients than others, but at the end of the day, everything we consume gives our body something.

Food neutrality encourages us to stop judging food based solely on how “healthy” or “unhealthy” it is and instead focus on how it makes us feel. What’s the texture like? Is it crunchy, juicy, soft? Instead of asking if something is “too high in calories,” ask yourself: Do I feel energized after eating this? Does it support my mental well-being? Am I enjoying this meal with friends or family?

This shift in mindset changes how we react to food. Instead of saying, “I’ve eaten so badly today, I can’t have that cake,” you might respond with, “I love cake! But I’m full from dinner, so no thank you.” Instead of “I’ll just run extra tomorrow to work this off,” you can simply say, “I love cake! Thanks for sharing.” No guilt, no punishment. Just eating.

Should read: "A small % of British food". The mushy peas at the top left are from a tin (added colouring, definitely Batchelor's Originals). The fish batter looks ming and the chips ... probably taste nice (sans the nuclear peas). Beans on toast is delicious, no matter how peeps think it looks, lol. A good protein & fibre choice. left bottom: WTF is that with the mash 🤢?? Bottom left: if you mixed the potatoes with the mince, it would look like most stews - and, depending on who made it, it will taste good. No one put in the Sunday Roast dinner, which is disppointing.

Boston-style, only. Don't know how you Brits can eat delicious beans and watered down ketchup.
Some skeptics worry that if we stop labeling food as “bad,” we’ll lose all control and eat nothing but sugar. But in reality, removing the fear around certain foods actually helps us eat them in moderation. Studies show that intuitive eating, which encourages listening to hunger and fullness cues, leads to better physical and emotional health, increased self-esteem, and a healthier relationship with food than restrictive dieting.

Why isn't it cooked?? It's just T*****E to look at it like this!!
So, instead of restricting ourselves and overthinking every bite, let’s choose kindness.
Let’s choose warm, comforting meals shared with family. Let’s choose roasted potatoes on Christmas, cake on our birthdays, and fresh salads when we crave them. Let’s enjoy berries in the summer, and soup in the winter. Let’s eat food because it nourishes us—physically and emotionally.
And most of all, let’s stop making food the enemy.

It’s a good idea to keep the seafood chilled. Not sure why people are bothered by this. The ice has a lot of thermal mss and can keep the shrimp at a safe temperature for a long time. A large event can go through this much ship quickly so it’s not like it’s sitting here long anyway. I used to do some ice carving at a casino and we used to make individual carved ice plates for certain seafood dishes for much of the same reason, to keep it chilled and to create a unique display.
