Food issues, eating disorders and a fast food culture are just a few of the concepts that can be illustrated by this funny photo of a Sumo wrestler about to grapple with a giant sandwich. This could be Sumo sized hunger, a big problem with Bulimia nervosa, Anorexia or genetic disposition to over-eating.

Binge Eating Disorders and Fast Food Restaurants

What better image to illustrate binge eating disorders than a Sumo wrestler facing a man-sized, make that sumo-sized, sandwich? This stock image brings a bit of need humor to a serious problem facing so many people in this day and age of ubiquitous fast food restaurants. In this picture a huge Sumo wrestler stands on a black and white checkered floor, in front of stainless steel restaurant doors, and squares off against a sandwich that is, if anything, larger than even the Sumo wrestler himself! A Sumo wrestler is an interesting choice for the model. Sumo wrestlers are supposed to be heavy and are not embarrassed by their obesity. This makes it easier to inject humor into such a weighty topic.
