You Are What You Eat

Okay, come on, Michael, Michael, give me my soup. Give me my soup! I want my soup! Alright.
What kind of soup is this?
“Mushroom”
Mushroom! Aaaah! I love mushroom soup! The soup, the mushroom soup here at Casa Della Pasta is, uh, delicious—it’s my favorite.
So, I’ve gotta speak up a little bit louder. Anyways, you are what you eat, so keep that in mind. Don’t eat junk food, or your body will turn into junk. Your body is a temple—treat it like, with the respect it deserves.
So, um, the reason I say this is because~~~see, I had a blood test this morning. I have to get, um, I have to get my blood checked every three months or so, because my cholesterol is really high. So, I have to be really careful about that. So, you need to be careful about how much fat you take in.
Potato chips, hamburgers, junk food, things like that. Stuff you buy at the convenience store has a lot of fat and cholesterol in it—a lot of “trans fats”, we say.
So, keep that in mind, don’t be eating all this junk food on a daily basis. Be careful about what you eat.
That’s why I come here every day. I eat the same thing because it’s healthy stuff. So, make sure you eat enough fruit and vegetables, and, um fish is really good for you. Try and avoid a lot of red meats—stuff with high fat and high cholesterol. You’ll be fine, but then, after about twenty or thirty years of that, that cholesterol hits you, then boom! Goodbye!
See you next time.
