What Does An MRI Scan Of Food Look Like?

Here’s another question that the internet has answered before you even had the chance to ask it. What do fruits look under MRI? Andy Ellison has gone to the immense effort of conducting magnetic resonance imaging on a bunch of different fruits and plants.

Ellison’s site – Inside Insides – has loads of these, he’s been hard at work on it for years. Belwo are a handful but go to his site for the full selection.

Like a lot of weird ideas on the internet, they’re great for no reason other than the fact they’re visually interesting. You could argue that it’s pointless, but then I would argue that you were pointless and that wouldn’t get us anywhere, so just have a look at these and stop your winging.

They might take a while to load because they’re higher resolution than most GIFs, so be patient my pretties…
