We have all heard that phrase…
YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT.
However… People have told me on several occasions that I am rather nuts and pretty corny… Yet, I eat neither of those things.
If we really want to get literal with this quote… Then I would actually be 80% salmon, 10% sweet potatoes (and 10% other) … However, these foods don’t have alternate definitions that might describe personality traits.
Hmm… I mean, I guess maybe you could call someone potatoes (another word for nuts)?
You know what? I may just start calling people POTATOES now! (And a majority of this world’s population eats potatoes… Sooo….?)
Okay, let me stop myself before I go on a POTATO (read: crazy) long tangent that confuses the crap out of all of you (if you aren’t already confused, that is).
To be clear though, I do understand the TRUE metaphorical meaning behind the saying.
What you eat affects how you feel and function.
That being said… I take things VERY literal, thus I guess… I am not actually nuts or corny after all.
Now there is something else that’s not corny AT ALL…
The “corn” dog recipe I am about to reveal to all of you in my latest YouTube video.
You see… I can’t eat corn because it’s a grain, and my body told grains to FORK OFF long ago!
Sadly this meant that corn dogs were off the table, among a billion other foods, but… Thanks to the inner workings of my noodle (I don’t eat noodles either so perhaps I can’t call my brain that?)… I have been able to create a “corn” dog recipe (read: coconut dog recipe) that, as mentioned earlier, doesn’t contain any corn at all (or ANY GRAINS for that matter), yet is still able to fill that meat wrapped in breading on a stick void.
Now if you start to think about the quote “you are what you eat” in a metaphorical sense again, you might be thinking, “well corn dogs may be delicious but they’re not very healthy, so I probably shouldn’t eat them.”
Well… Dog (har har, get it? Because some of you eat hot dogs)… “You are what you eat” can be digested in a positive when associated with the recipe I am about to share with you because all the ingredients are DOGGONE A-MAIZE-ING for your health!
Okay… Maybe I am a bit corny. Shucks…
