Subject: Fast Food Follies...

IN THE BEGINNING

In the beginning God created the heavens and the Earth. And the Earth was

without form, and void, and darkness was upon the face of the deep.

And Satan said, " It doesn't get any better than this. "

And God said, " Let there be light, " and there was light. And God said,

" Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree

yielding fruit, " and God saw that it was good.

And Satan said, " There goes the neighbourhood. "

And God said, " Let us make Man in our image. " And so God created Man in

his own image; male and female created he them. And God looked upon Man and

Woman and saw that they were lean and fit.

And Satan said, " I know how I can get back in this game. "

And God populated the earth with broccoli and cauliflower and spinach,

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

healthy lives.

And Satan created Mc's. And Mc's brought forth the 99-cent

double cheeseburger.

And Satan said to Man, " You want fries with that? "

And Man said, " Supersize them. " And Man gained 5 pounds.

And God created the healthful yogurt, that woman might keep her figure

that man found so fair.

And Satan brought forth chocolate. And Woman gained 5 pounds.

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

And Satan brought forth Ben and Jerry's. And Woman gained 10 pounds.

And God said, " I have sent thee heart-healthy vegetables and olive oil

with which to cook them. "

And Satan brought forth chicken-fried steak so big it needed its own

platter.

And Man gained 10 pounds and his bad cholesterol went through the roof.

And God brought forth running shoes and Man resolved to lose those extra

pounds.

And Satan brought forth cable TV with remote control so Man would not have

to toil to change channels between ESPN and ESPN2.

And Man gained another 20 pounds.

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....
