2014-02-14来源:中国日报网

春节过后肚腩见长,想要减肥却没有动力?不妨试试最新的减肥利器——人体脂肪模型。

据英国《每日邮报》网站2月10日报道,美国购物网站“解剖学仓库”(Anatomy Warehouse)最近推出了一款新产品——重量为1磅(约合0.45公斤)的人体脂肪模型,吸引众人视线。

这块三维立体的“人体脂肪”通体黄色,看上去十分逼真。依据网站上的产品介绍,除了形似之外,模型摸上去的手感也很神似,“该产品由柔软、易弯折的聚乙烯塑料制作而成,可被随意挤压揉捏,如同真正的人体脂肪”。产品介绍中还写明,人体脂肪模型适用于教学,“当其在学生手中传阅时,能够留下深刻的、令人难以忘怀的教学效果”。

上述形象生动的文字描述以及人体模型逼真的外表,引发网友吐槽。有网友留言称:“这个模型真不错,既可以拿来当镇纸,又能摆在餐桌上逼人减肥。看着它,早餐时肯定吃不下培根了。”

人体脂肪

A website has begun selling a single pound of human fat to anyone considering a second helping of bacon at breakfast.

This stomach churning product may look like the real thing, but it cannot be made into soap –it is a revolting replica.

First noticed by Gizmodo, the body fat model is sold by Anatomy Warehouse.

The three-dimensional visual is meant to replicate the feeling of holding one pound of fatty human tissue.

It is made of soft, pliable vinyl plastic and can be squeezed and manipulated to feel like real human fat.

The replica appears to be made for educational purposes, as its description claims it ‘has a profound, memorable effect when passed among the audience.’

It also doubles as a repugnant paperweight or morning run motivator.
