If Fattening Foods Could Talk
You happily reach for candy at a 7-Eleven:
That Snickers sure looks great
Until it suddenly snickers & says, “Wow!
“You really have put on weight.”
You’re given a McDonald’s milkshake to have
With your fast food dinner.
It sighs. “Seriously? I hope I’m not for you but
Someone else who’s thinner.”
At the supermarket, you put two cakes in your cart.
Then they tell you, “Buy one.
In fact, put us both back. Have you heard of apples?
Knock yourself out. Try one.”
These insults will help trim anyone’s waistline
Since they will only inspire far less eating ---
Places like Jenny Craig will no longer be needed
But Jenny Craig herself may start stress eating.
