One Final Plea from Alphabet Pasta by alophoto

One Final Plea from Alphabet Pasta

If our food could talk, these would be it's final words.

Poor spaghetti. It wasn't meant to be. You are too delicious to spare. Now get into my belly.

Last year, I played with my food. It's ok to do this sometimes (shhh, don't tell the kids;). Bought Alphabet Spaghettios and used the kids leftovers for this shot: . http://365project.org/amandal/365-year-2/2014-01-07 And recently, I had this idea and found these letters and took the shot before they ate.

Love that my son was a willing mouth model. I thought to make it a selfie, but figured it may have been hard to get the angle right.

When I was in high school, my favorite class was my freshman biology class. We had the kookiest, most fun teacher ever. I swear he taught us that broccoli has nerve endings and can feel pain. I often have thought of it screaming in my mouth when I eat it. None of my classmates remember this, though, so it must have been some strange dream I had or something. But I think that lesson or dream or whatever it was inspired this silly shot.

Poor food. Rough life it has. YUM!
This is fun :-) good thinking about the selective color.

fantastic!

Such a fav for me! Love the SC (I know that comes as a shock). I'm reminded of a old TV episode (it could be from Tales From The Darkside - I can't remember) but the story was about a girl wanting to lose weight. She ordered a product that made her food come to life. It would scream and beg for mercy if she tried to eat it. The episode did not end well for the poor girl.

Cool, fun shot, neat composition
January 22nd, 2015  
Great use of SC! I wonder this myself, how food feel about being eaten... I have decided that is what food wants. They are not happy until they have been eaten. So, food is very sad if it gets thrown in the trash. Haha, you would think I was 1000 lbs. talking like this. ;-)
January 22nd, 2015

@amandal good thinking
January 23rd, 2015  
Great SC! Although I don't like spaghetti, I can see that your son is dying to put this in his mouth! He's a good and patient model!
January 23rd, 2015  
Very cool.
January 23rd, 2015  
Awesome capture. Great use of SC and your kids are great models..they take after their MOM. Love your story about broccoli...now I will always think about it screaming when I eat it! Oh my!!! As much as I love crab...when we catch it fresh and cook it (live) I have to close my eyes and ears...because someone told me they scream when they are dropped in the hot water. Yikes..I might have a nightmare tonight.
January 23rd, 2015  
Toooooo funny and love the selective coloring!! Your food lesson is a lot like the "tree falling in the woods and if no one is around, does it still make a sound?" Great shot and lots of fun! FAV!
January 23rd, 2015  
Great idea and capture!
January 23rd, 2015

Correction on my above note; make that "you and Your mind..." (Was attempting to type on an iPad while traveling on a bumpy interstate.)
