Death By Food: The Meat Helmet

meatHelmet1.jpgMcDonald's has pissed off yet another artsy kid again. The Meat Helmet looks at the absurd attempt of fast food chains to market to the health conscious and such. Basically, it's headgear that forces you to chew to burn calories. Chewing burns about 70 calories an hour, so if you start chomping down on things like Burger King's Kong-Sized Whopper or a few McGriddles, you're screwed. You have to input the amount of calories you're consuming into the belt you wear which contains the CPU and brains behind The Meat Helmet, then the device makes you chew away until you've burned the calories off. Gee, I think there was something like this in the movie Saw.
