This comment questions whether the subject of this article is 'neat' or actually just objectionable, as it has offended my delicate sensibilities.

'A father called about tater tots he had cooked in the oven; after his kids ate them, the caller realized there
was a charred rat corpse in the oven'

Oh yum. I so wouldn't think to call the poison control centre for that though...

I have one of these masquerading as a doorstop in my laundry, but it's definitely a nut-cracker!

That was actually pretty touching. Amazingly talented guy as well!

Haha they look like they're strapped in to launch or something...almost makes me feel sorry for them, but I guess if it works it's worth it.

I can see how maybe it can be used as a tool to make us all questions what we do eat and how dangerous those choices can be, but it seems to be in slightly poor taste to do so in this way. I think the point would have been clear had anyone made such a salad, let alone to have those extra comments on top regarding the nutrition (though it was relevant and shocking) as well as the unfortunate lady doing the cooking. It seems to be a rather cruel way of making us re-evaluate out eating habits, insofar as it relies most on our shock/disgust/pity for the lady cooking more than anything else.

Yet, I am also glad to see that most of the comments have been thoughtful and relevant and as you pointed out, reflect that many of this find this saddening rather than humorous. I just imagined that had I been in the place of the creator of that video I don't think I'd want to be used as an example of what not to do, regardless of how unhealthy my cooking was. Sorry if I came across as too preachy, it's more the fact that I find the video a upsetting because it portrays the way some people cook and their lack of nutritional knowledge etc., which isn't an isolated thing by any means, but does so at the expense of this lady. Granted, she put the video up the first place, but that is also a bit saddening as she obviously didn't see the connections people would make...

Anyway, thanks for the thoughtful reply. :)

To be honest I don't really see how this is 'neat'. I get that it might be funny to some, but really it just makes me feel awful...It's not really instructional and wasn't at all interesting to me, making me wonder why it was posted in the first place? To poke fun at some poor hugely overweight woman? I can't see how else it is relevant.

They really didn't do this right - the corners should have been cut into halves diagonally so you could have had different 'colours' on each side...But apart from that cool, yet totally disgusting!
