When worlds collide
Standing on (in?) line at supermarket and reading the cover of women's magazine: "Lose weight for life". Cover photo? A big heaping plate of luscious fried chicken. Side by side. No kidding. Did editorial staff make a blunder? Did anyone notice the juxtaposition of gloriously caloric fried chicken and touting diet article? Should have bought magazine. A classic.

My mother was a huge fan of Family Circle and Women's Day mags... Most every month they featured a dessert as the cover picture and some sort of fad diet and exercise program as one of the lead stories... It's no wonder folks have trouble staying healthy!
First is a major mixed signal offender too -every month a diet and a cake share the cover.
So true! Or lost 10 pounds in 5 days! Or another mixed message that I see a lot is when there is a topic such as "body acceptance" with photos of air-brushed models throughout the magazine!
