My take on “Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs” is that it is a reflection on our modern society. Who would have thought a children’s movie would hold a mirror to our economy to show a parable for children. The movie is maybe without intention, a look at obesity or diabetes in our generation. The town eats all this food without malice or knowing the consequences. The way they throw away the food into a reservoir is a lot like today. When plenty people could be helped by this food, we just trash it. The “Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs” is a slap in the face for adults but in a softer, cartoon design. They’re basically warning us for what’s happening, but we won’t listen.

The diets that actually ‘work’ in my opinion are very few. The Military diet is one of few that have proven true to me. I feel like most diets will work, you just have to follow through. Most people complain about them not working yet they have a few cheat days per week. I don’t think you should expect something to work when you’re not putting work into it. It’s like a wind up toy, do you expect it to start going if you don’t wind it up? If you stick to a healthy diet and follow through there’s no reason it shouldn’t work, the military diet works for my sisters and I. It’s one of the only diets I’d trust.
