In her bizarre photo series “Animal Food,” artist [Sarah DeRemer](https://www.facebook.com/pages/Sarah-DeRemer-Art/240474417016) digitally manipulated images of animals to look like chopped up pieces of fruits and vegetables. Some of her animals include the Hippotato, the Frovocado, the Limon, and of course, the Kiwi. The series gives us food for thought (no pun intended) about the ethics of eating meat. If you can’t stomach the thought of eating a cute Orange Chicken, how can you stand eating the poor blood-soaked, lifeless body of the real thing?
