and Man Gained Pounds

======================

God populated the earth with broccoli and cauliflower and

spinach and green and yellow vegetables of all kinds, so Man and

Woman would live long and healthy lives.

And Satan created fast food. And fast food brought forth the

99-cent double-cheeseburger. And Satan said to Man, " You want

fries with that? "

And Man said, " Super size them. "

And Man gained pounds.

And God created the healthful yogurt that woman might keep her

figure that man found so fair.

And Satan froze the yogurt, and he brought forth chocolate,

nuts and brightly colored sprinkle candy to put on the yogurt.

And woman gained pounds.

And God said, " Try my crispy fresh salad. "

And Satan brought forth creamy dressings, bacon bits, and

shredded cheese.

And there was ice cream for dessert.

And woman gained pounds.

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

olive oil with which to cook them. "

And Satan brought forth chicken-fried steak in the restaurant so

big it needed its own platter. And Man gained pounds, and his

bad cholesterol went through the roof.

And God said, " You're running up the score, Devil. " And God

brought forth the potato, a vegetable naturally low in fat and

brimming with nutrition.

And Satan peeled off the healthful skin and sliced the starchy

center into chips and deep-fat fried them. And he created sour

cream dip also. And Man clutched his remote control and ate the

potato chips swaddled in cholesterol. And Satan saw and said,

" It is good. " And Man went into cardiac arrest.

And God sighed and created quadruple bypass surgery.....

And Satan created HMOs...
