If I were any food what would I be and Why?


If I were any food I think I’d classify myself as an Atomic Fireball. I have many things in common with an Atomic Fireball. I am comprised of several layers; I like the color red, and metaphorically I am wrapped in plastic. I consider myself an Atomic fireball because of the gradual build up of intense heat caused by this confection. Once you pop an Atomic Fireball in your mouth the sensation is a mild cinnamon, the longer the atomic fireball is in your mouth the level of heat intensifies. Almost to the point where it is intolerable but then comes the soothing relief of sugar that heals the mouth and washes away the heat. That in itself is a metaphor for practically everything that is occurring in my life. I can apply that to my school life, my personal life, and my work life. I get overwhelmed easily but eventually it subsides.

I think I can relate. Maybe I'm a lemonhead, because I agree with all the layers/sugar/intensity stuff but instead of heat I feel everything is sour.

Nice metaphor!
