In the beginning, God populated the earth with broccoli and 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 and Krispy
Kreme and Satan said, "You want chocolate with that?" And man said, "Yeah!"
And woman said, "And another one, with sprinkles!" and they gained 10
pounds.
And God created 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 8 to size 14.
So God said, "Try my fresh green salad." And Satan presented Thousand
Island dressing, and garlic toast on the side. And man and woman unfastened
their belts.
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 introduced running shoes so that his children might lose those
extra pounds. And Satan countered with cable TV with a remote control so
man would not have to toil to change the channels. And man and woman
laughed and cried before the flickering light and gained more 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 began to look like a blimp!
God then recommended lean beef so that man might consume fewer calories and
still satisfy his appetite. And Satan created McDonalds and its 99-cent
double cheeseburger. Then he added, "You want fries with that?" and man
replied 'Yeah! And super size 'em." And Satan said, "It is good." And man
went into cardiac arrest.
God sighed and created quadruple bypass surgery.
