Face Funnels ($29.95)

Face Funnels ($29.95)

I’m working on a website — www.addiction-therapy.com — and loading the self-assessment forms there. One of them is for folks with eating disorders. Guess what? I discover that I’m a high-risk candidate.

One question grabs my attention: “Have you ever spit out or vomited food in an effort to ‘get rid of it’?”

Last year, about this time, I hit on a great diet idea. What if you could eat all you wanted of anything … but all you had to do was spit it out? Swallowing isn’t that important to me. But chewing, tasting … gotta have it. Spitting seemed like a godsend.

To make this work, we need a new technology: face funnels. Connected to tubes which lead to reservoirs, the face funnel is placed discretely over the diner’s mouth. With one expulsion, the offensive food is on its way to oblivion.

The diet didn’t last, by they way. Without face funnels, it’s just too darn impractical.
