About This Quote
The saying, “Tell me what you eat and I will tell you who you are,” is a reminder that our outward appearance is a reflection of our innermost thoughts and emotions. What we put in our mouth reveals a lot about what we value in life. If we have a diet that consists of only junk food then it's likely that we have a lot of junk in our lives. The saying also reminds us that if we want to do something about the situation, then we need to start with changing what we're eating.
