    How come God made the best-tasting foods have the highest calories?

254.1A Joke???WONDER::COYLEOnly 48.8% of my former self!Thu Mar 31 1988 12:237
    It is some sort of mistake or joke.  I am convinced the tastes of
    Spinach and Girl Scout Cookies got mixed up.

254.3Darwin?LABC::FRIEDMANThu Mar 31 1988 17:545
    Perhaps the origin is in evolution and natural selection:  In the
    cave-man/woman days, the people who liked and ate  spinach did not
    survive.  The people who liked the high-calorie food stored up
    a lot of fat in their bodies and survived the famine times.

254.4I like itMSDOA2::MCMULLINFri Apr 01 1988 10:544
    I've asked that question a hundred times.  If girl scout cookies,
    cheese cake, and chocolate ice cream were all low in calories, I
    wouldn't have to worry about gaining weight!!!
