You know those things that people say about food that make you rethink whether to eat them or not?

For example: Eating chocolates cause pimple/acne outbreaks (which by the way, is not true nor has it been proven to be; Acne does not depend on diet {or sex and/or exercise})

Despite that, every time I eat that piece of chocolate, I brace myself for that pimple that could appear the next day.

When I eat cheese or fatty foods like pizza, I actually have visions of little fat molecules going and clogging my arteries. Observe:

In reality, it really depends on what kind of fat is in the food; saturated & trans (the bad) vs. poly/mono unsaturated (the good). And they don’t… lounge around like that. This is what it really looks like.

When I eat those olives, which I happen to adore, I visualize them chasing off that fat and clearing up those arteries.

They don’t really do that either. They are healthy in the way that they help lower bad cholesterol though.

The same goes for other foods. Too much oily food brings on a headache that is sometimes temporarily cured by drinking water. Again, no sound reasoning, only that it “clears” it away for a while.

Before I get carried away, do you guys have weird food associations that go against (or with) logic and literature?
