Apples and Milky Way Bars

Apples and Milky Way candy bars My idea of eating healthy Two bites of apple A giant bite of Milky Way Bite Bite BITE Bite Bite BITE The apples begin to taste sour But I force myself to eat them Thinking they will offset the calories of the Milky Ways Just four little ones Yes I am eating four Teeny tiny ones Not four of the big ones My idea of a diet

Ha, ha! How the apples will help, I really don't know. Why don't you just eat the milky way bars until you can't look at another apple! lol. What a diet idea! :) gw

I took your advice and it works. Throwing out those apples now.

Twelve translate to tasty tid bits! Not so app-ealing apple eating...

The apple gets more sour with each bite of candy.
