Eat and be merry for tomorrow you will be FAT!

Why is it that we have been given so much of everything and then we are told that we consume to much and we've grown fat.
We're all the biggest losers!
Why has society made us fat, then told us we need to be thin!
It is the ultimate insult, the ultimate paradox!
The Ultimate SLAP in the face!
Never before have we been given so much, so much!
Variety, quantity, a nebulous concept of taste and preference, choice and appetite, desire, hunger, gluttony, calories, kilojoules, carbohydrates, fat, fat, fat!
How do we make any sense of eating a 45g cookie, only to consume 20g of fat.
We know it, we are fast food fiends, heinously destroying our bodies, consuming everything and anything, sacrificing all for the sake of taste, for the sake of flavour.
The five minute fix in order to fill, to feel filled, but the stomach has no windows, it cannot see what we put into it, what we fill it with, what enters only to exit through the bowel, to faecate!!!
The most expensive cut of meat, lobster or intricately prepared dish, goes to the same end, meets the same fate.
FLUSHED AWAY!
No matter how delicious it tastes to the palette, the final result is the same, they are all different means to the one end.
So what is the point? Why all the focus and attention? Why all the fuss? Why such a concetrated effort, such a focus on consuming the ultimate morsel of culinary cupidity, only to find that it is actually this insatiable desire, this unquenchable thirst that is consuming us.
As a social order as a complete group, this generation in the west has lost the plot. We have lost all direction and desire for anything above and beyond the transient and temporary, the base and superficial, the now, the quick-fix.
We are unwilling to strive to achieve anything more, anything outside of the prism we have built for ourselves, for our children, through our indifference and lack of understanding as to who and what we are.
So look at our lives, look at the predicament we have put ourselves into.
We are raised to enjoy the gluttonous excesses of western caitalism, only to reap the results later in life in the form of innumerable obesity associated diseases, such as diabetes, heart disease and cancer, to name a few.
Once we have spent our first 20-30 years of life accustomed to such an addiction, now with our middle-aged belly well on its way, we begin to realise, if we are lucky that all is not as it seems.
We begin to understand that all our excesses come at a price, and the price we pay for our slavery to our tastebuds and our bellies is our miserable, pathetic, addicted, meaningless lives.
