Space Food

Lets all dine at Major toms
A space food banquet
Provided by ground control

Although this is not sci-fi delight
This is cuisine of the 21st century type

Foil sachets and microwave meals
Calorific content and salty treats
Has the diet of man progressed to this?

When will we learn that speed and ease don’t help?
Its time and effort that yields wealth

Obesity and heart attacks are for desert
No matter how much physical energy you exert

Change your mind set before you choke
The end is nigh for the lazy folk
