PSA: This Just In, " A COOKIE IS STILL, A COOKIE!"

PSA: This Just In, "A COOKIE IS STILL A COOKIE!"

Almost no one would think they could eat cake in the middle of the day, for just any old reason, but we trust cookies. Cookies have become an every day snack. They are thin and light, easy to carry, have a long shelf-life, and we are convinced that they are pretty much harmless. Even a person who stays ten feet away from soda and juice at all times will not think twice about biting into a cookie. The COOKIE has become the treat that we have gotten use to after our lunch time meals or as an afternoon or late night snack. Even is we eat desert, should we really be eating it twice a day? What makes the COOKIE even more sinister is that you can rarely eat just one, unless of course the cookie is the size of your face!

Even when we have finally come to our senses and admitted that COOKIES are the DEVIL, we fool ourselves with the LOW-FAT COOKIE, THE SUGAR-FREE COOKIE, THE HIGH FIBER COOKIE, THE VEGAN COOKIE, THE GLUTEN-FREE COOKIE, etc. No matter what the package say's be warned that a COOKIE, IS STILL A COOKIE!

Unless you want to end up like the COOKIE MONSTER, a big giant blue thing, well maybe you won't turn blue like him, but any how, just treat all cookies the same. Remember that the best defense is a good offense. Keep the house a COOKIE FREE ZONE! Just Say No, in the grocery store. Check your cart and remove items at the check-out if you have to. Do not buy value size packs of cookies, you do not need to STORE COOKIES in your home or your BELLY! Unless there is NUCLAR WAR COOKIES will still be around.

And if for some reason you really do want to bring home a pack of cookies, why don't you just add all 24 cookies into your weight-loss tracker and stop kidding yourself!
