I’d like you more as another flavor

I eat a lot... I mean a lot. On a typical day, I usually take in the recommended amount of a 300 pound pro wrestler. Food is never far from me, and if it is, I change that. Whether in the fridge, in my backpack or in my mouth, it's nearby.

Mercury a global health problem
