Cathy Classics by Cathy Guisewite for June 14, 2017

Typical. No one blames themselves for gaining weight, it’s all the food industry’s fault. No one made you eat those rice cakes and fat free soy desserts.

‘Diet food’ induced weight is the worst kind of weight. If I wanted to gain weight – I’d choose something tasty like dark chocolate, home-made cookies, soda with real sugar, almond danish. But I am quite satisfied to live on protein and low carb veggies.

I would say this is the WORST kind of weight to gain! If you’re going to put on the pounds, you might as well enjoy it! By gaining weight on rice cakes and soy yogurt, you’re only suffering twice …

I’d rather eat half of a genuine,fudgy brownie made with butter and real chocolate than a whole box of Snackwell diet “brownies”.

SIGH … (And, what the hey—I’ll toss in an [eye-roll], too.)

I would ask why they’re eating the rice cakes if said cakes are icky, but this is Cathy we’re talking about, isn’t it?

HI, MOM. Hello, “Cathy” Clan.

And don’t forget potato chips.
