husband is a major "Foodie" - and he does the bulk of the cooking in our house. Now he is a wonderful cook - but he is a bit overly fond of the cheeses and the sauces and the deep-fried anything. If it's fattening and bad for you? husband loves it! If it's fattening and bad for you and sprinkled with cheese and bacon bits? husband loves it even better!
It should not surprise you to hear that husband is a big man.
And every few years, husband decides he wants to slim down. The problem is, he is always looking for a "trick" or a "gimmick" that will let him slim down and yet continue to eat the way he eats. And every few years, he tries some new diet plan - loses a few pounds...and then quickly puts it all back on.
So right now - husband wants to start a new diet. He was asking me what I thought about buying a particular product...and having visions of spending all kinds of money on yet another gimmick that wasn't going to work in the long run - I just had to break it to him that he was gonna have to excercise more and change his eating habits.
Well, husband argued for a bit...and I ended up telling him "I'm sorry, honey - you're just gonna have to eat more vegetables!"
Long pause....
Well, he supposed he could start eating more salads....
long pause....
Oooohhhh - I could put steak on my salad and I could get those cheese crumbles to add to it, and maybe some bacon and salami chunks....and oooohhhhh chunky bleu cheese dressing...and those big cheesy croutons...
Yeah....that should work...
