10 Reasons to Overeat
1. Instant gratification saves time
2. Aren't we supposed to end world hunger?
3. Why cut pork when the government won't?
4. Grow the economy and yourself.
5. The U.S.A. can still be No. 1 in something!
6. Excess is a normal American trait.
7. It is good exercise for your jaw.
8. You won't have to fight temptation.
9. Overeaters get a lot of attention.
10. It sure does taste good.
