It's like:
"What's that you're putting on my son's sandwich? Pure lard? That's..."
"All natural, made from pigs, and, like other fats, fine in moderation?"
"I was gonna say disgusting, but now that you've convinced me it's healthy and delicious why don't you serve me up a plate?"
Why must we pretend bad things are good for us America? Now don't get me wrong. I like my corn syrup and my crisco like any other girl but not because I think it's good for me. It's usually a choice determined by a craving and lack of self discipline. But I need someone trying to talk me out of eating this crap, not into it.
Of course, now that I'm thinking about it, without this attitude we would not have shows like Biggest Loser which, in spite of being a commercial for Jenny O Turkey, gum, and Jillian Michaels, I still watch religiously.
Carry on corn syrup, carry on.
