This order of “sloppy fries” from Bub’s allowed me to test a theory.  I present this bit of research here since weight loss is often a reason for people to participate in the Mini-Marathon.

I took a picture of these fries to see whether the “Flash Diet” might be effective.  Here’s how it’s supposed to work: if you photograph your food, you may change your eating habits — and eat less — because you stop to think about what you see on the table in front of you.

Did it work?  Well, I did stop to think about it.   I did take the picture.  In fact, I am still thinking about those fries.  They were delicious.
