Broccoli...
Have you heard that broccoli is a food that does something to prevent cancer? Yeah, so have I. Cancer is a terrible disease, but it isn't the only thing out there that causes pain or even death. What if scientists put more energy into finding other kinds of food that prevent different tragedies? The world would be a better place. Let's imagine the possibilities:
- Salt and vinegar chips to avoid a heart attack
- Green beans to prevent car accidents
- Eatmore chocolate bars to be safe from falling from great heights
- Mashed potatoes to keep from being shot with a gun
- Jelly beans to prevent paper cuts
- Twinkies to avert spontaneous combustion (who knows, maybe it's already working!)
The possibilities are endless. So, next time you see a person collecting for these great causes, give generously. Who knows? The next person to need cheesebread because of an alligator attack may be you!
Now, if only broccoli tasted like chocolate ice cream....
