Stupidly funny

So Weight Watchers has been going for a daft amount of time now and clearly it's very successful.  I wonder how successful it would be if they still used these recipe cards?  Not very I'd imagine!  The lady who's written the captions to these is hilarious, almost as funny as the cards themselves. 

Here's a taster of just how funny these things are...

"I hope that you can see that this is a jellied salad. Do you see it glisten? Do you require a close-up to understand that these beans and mushrooms and pimiento strips are one solid, glistening mass? Okay!

See how the Ceramic Mushroom Family has gathered to show their children what happens to bad little mushrooms"

"These are the saddest diet beverages ever.

The one on the right is skim milk and orange pulp. The one on the left is made with water, sherry extract, and two beef bouillon cubes.

No, really.

Well, there's also celery in it. Oh, and SELF-LOATHING."

Ever wonder what that movie Carrie would have been like if it had been cast with chickens instead of people and also possibly entirely reconceived as a porno?

No? Well, does it help to know that now you'll never have to? No? Sorry.

Well, as adjectives for mackerel go, you could do worse than "snappy." Snappy! So snappy you need threeglasses of cranberry juice to wash it down! So snappy they've placed it in a special roped-off area! Don't get too close to the casserole! 'Cause it'll SNAP at ya! Ha! Ha! SNAPPY!

I must admit, the props on these pictures are scarily random!  The woman who has set these comedy gems free shares the story of how she came across them here, a funny read!
