Americans look to Jesus for a diet
\nFive loaves, two fish and a goblet of red wine could be on the menu for Americans if a new diet takes off<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

(Sorry, Americans, but this is the sort of thing we’re told is normal for you. Just when we’re feeling bad about the xenophobic national stereotyping, some of you go and vote Huckabee back into the running.)<\/p>\n

Don Colbert, a Florida doctor, published a diet book that is based on the food in the Bible.<\/p>\n

He says: “If you truly want to follow Jesus in every area of your life you cannot ignore your eating habits.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Well, if there are any over-enthusiastic fundamentalists reading this, it seems to mean that you should stick to kosher foods and just eat bread, fish and lentils. <\/p>\n

In anorexically small portions, if you only get a five-thousandth share of five loaves and a couple of fishes. Now that is one harsh diet.<\/p>\n

Still, at least you can replace all your water with wine. There’s always an upside.<\/p>\n
