Are you a food snob?

Because I am.

I think that Jr. bacon cheeseburger I had several weeks ago that disgusted me so much I cried and threw it across the room is a fine testament to that.

I didn't used to be this way. I am this way on my own acoord and by my own education. I know things. I know how different my life is now. I know how different I feel now. I know what's in that Big Mac you're eating. There are enough people sitting in the fast food line, feeding it to their kids, so WTF? Trust me, if I could find away to single handedly bring down the fast food places and the Hostess factory, I would be there, fire bomber at the ready. And it's not even just about the food. You know where I'm going with this.

The fact is, I know it's the fringe. But I know i'm right....



Wait for it.....


For me.


You see, i've been there. I've been enjoying a salad.... hell..... a burger and have felt the stares that echo "should she really be eating that?" Why the fuck would I outright scrutinize what you decide to put in your mouth? How fucking rude is that? Where do I get off?

Except you, Erin, you have put me on a mission, you little lost soul, you.

Life is about personal choice. Does your personal decision line up with what you believe? If it doesn't, time to re-evaluate. So far, I'm not doing too bad on that. And I've never said "hey. Put down that milkshake, fatass".

I know there are certain things I can do to affect change in an immediate sense by acting or speaking. Taking a drunk persons car keys and risking being a square by taking their keys is a fine example of this. I will always be that girl.

Besides those situations, it's just me and my example. And I have to be ok with that. Otherwise, I'd be really fucking pissed off all the time.

I can laugh about my self declaration of food snob and deal with the teasing about my "weird" foods and hell, even the fact that I've...... kept this weight off..... because I know what I'm doing is purely good. I have much faith in what I'm doing and it's complete effect on the rest of my life. And if someone else has that faith, why argue with them?



On a side note, Joe Sakic knows me by name and thinks I'm great.
