- The real story of creation ...
In the beginning, God created the Heavens and the Earth and populated
the Earth with colorful fruits and vegetables of all kinds so
that Man and Woman would live long and healthy lives.
Then Satan created doughnuts and ice cream. And Man and Woman ate of
them. And Satan smiled.
And God created low-fat 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 gained in
size.
So God said, "Try my fresh green salad." And Satan presented thick
creamy dressing, buttery croutons and garlic toast on the side.
And Man and Woman loosened their coverings.
God then said, "Behold, 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. And Man's cholesterol reached
toward the heavens.
God then created a light, fluffy white cake and named it "Angel Food."
And Satan created chocolate cake and named it "Devil's Food."
God then brought forth running shoes for his children. And Satan gave
them cable TV with a remote control. And Man and Woman became
lazy and gained pounds.
Then God brought forth the potato, naturally low in fat and brimming
with nutrition. And Satan peeled off the healthful skin, sliced
the starchy center into chips and deep-fried them. And Man continued to
grow in size.
God then gave lean beef so that Man might consume fewer calories and
fat. And Satan created the 99-cent double bacon cheeseburger
and asked, "You want to super-size those fries?"
And Man went into cardiac arrest.
God sighed and created quadruple bypass surgery. And Satan created HMOs.
