A doctor was addressing a large audience in Wallen.
"The material we put into our stomachs is enough
to have killed most of us years ago."
"Red meat is awful, soft drinks corrode the stomach
lining. Chinese food is loaded with MSG. High fat
diets can be disastrous and none of us realizes the
long-term harm caused by the germs in our drinking
water. But there is one thing that is most dangerous
of all and we all have, or will, eat it. Can anyone
here tell me what food it is that causes the most
grief and suffering for years after eating it?"
After several seconds of quiet, Allan, sitting in the
front row, raises his hand and softly said,
"Wedding cake."
