Maybe you've seen this. If not it's good for a laugh:

In the beginning, God created the Heavens and the Earth and

populated the Earth with broccoli, cauliflower and spinach, green and

yellow and red vegetables of all kinds, so Man and Woman would live

long and healthy lives.

Then using God's great gifts, Satan created Ben and Jerry's Ice

Cream and Krispy Creme Donuts. And Satan said, " You want chocolate

with that? " And Man said, " Yes! " and Woman said, " and as long as

you're at it, add some sprinkles. " And they gained 10 pounds. And

Satan smiled.

And God created the healthful yogurt that Woman might keep the

figure that Man found so fair. And Satan brought forth white flour

from the wheat, and sugar from the cane and combined them. And Woman

went from size 6 to size 14..

So God said, " Try my fresh green salad. " And Satan presented

Thousand-Island Dressing, buttery croutons and garlic toast on the

side. And Man and Woman unfastened their belts following the repast.

God then said, " I have sent you heart healthy vegetables and olive

oil in which to cook them. " And Satan brought forth deep fried fish

and chicken-fried steak so big it needed its own platter. And Man

gained more weight and his cholesterol went through the roof.

God then created a light, fluffy white cake, named it " Angel Food

Cake, " and said, " It is good. " Satan then created chocolate cake and

named it " Devil's Food. "

God then brought forth running shoes so that His children might

lose those extra pounds. And Satan gave cable TV with a remote

control so Man would not have to toil changing the channels. And Man

and Woman laughed and cried before the flickering blue light and

gained pounds.

Then God brought forth the potato, naturally low in fat and

brimming with nutrition. And Satan peeled off the healthful skin and

sliced the starchy center into chips and deep-fried them. And Man

gained pounds.

God then gave lean beef so that Man might consume fewer calories

and still satisfy his appetite. And Satan created Mc's and its

99-cent double cheeseburger. Then said, " You want fries with that? "

And Man replied, " Yes! And super size them! " And Satan said, " It is

good. " And Man went into cardiac arrest.

God sighed and created quadruple bypass surgery.

Then Satan created HMOs.
