Many of us have already seen the previews for the movie Blindness. If not, let me give you a short synopsis.  Blindness is based on a novel written by Jose Saramago. It is about how humanity acts when an epidemic happens. In this story, the epidemic is blindness. All those who are infected are quarantined into a mental asylum.  It is about how society can go a little wacky on itself in stressful times and how people truly do end up prevailing for the better of everyone.

There is a site dedicated to this film and its themes called i am blind.   It is all user generated content and has a very busy forum around the concepts discussed in this film.  They talk about what life would really be like if this happened.  However, they also have an excellent photostream of the last thing you would want to see if you would happen to go blind.  I am including this for my readers since the picture above is the only food picture on their photostream!

Now, there has to be a few more excellent food photos that definitely need to be included on there!  I’d like to see some cakes, ice cream, and even some chocolate.  Plus, if you think about, imagine how much better your food would taste.  There has been studies down about how if you lose one sense, they other ones get better.  I am sure the recipes on this blog would taste that much better!

What are some of the last things you would like to see if you were to go blind?
