As the tallest, gangliest girl in my class, one of my fantasies as an 8-year old was to shrink myself down to the height of a celery stick. I imagined going on elaborate adventures through the refrigerator (ignoring practicalities like the resulting suffocation) and eating my way through the chocolate streams and soft serve mountains in Dairy Queen sundaes. As with all my escapist dreams, food was featured at the center of the story.

Too bad I'm not a miniature figurine like the one in the photograph. Then I could explore the fascinating landscapes of food. A display of more figures on food be found at Fresh99.com.
