They are engineered foods that stimulate a dopamine response. A cheap high.


It's probably why the cookie monster died young too.

Massive heart attack at that age. Diet and exercise my friend. :D

Indeed. My grandfather had his first at 31. You really have to take care of yourself regardless of what age you happen to be. Sadly you're never really too young to die.

That family has some bad luck. His father wasnt all that old when he died either.

It is! Only eight years older than me...8O

As I recall Jim didn't make "old bones" either.

I read somewhere recently that age 53 is the "water shed" age with regard to surviving heart attacks, those under 53 generally don't and those above age 53 generally do. Not sure if that is fact or anecdotal.

Bummer.


Here is my chance to get a job as a Muppet.

Yeah but you'd have to work for Disney. Are you prepared to sell your eternal soul?8O

I like "bad" food too much. Why must they be so tasty?:(

Good food can be tasty too. You just need a formal introduction.;)

His dad died from a virus didn't he? Flu turned to pneumonia or something?

He has no soul.;)

I look forward to that.:)

Jim Henson died at 53 due to his organs failing from a form of strep.
