Where did we go off the track? When did eating butter become a sin, and a little bit of extra flesh unappealing, if not repellent? All religions have certain days when people refrain from eating and excessive eating is one of Christianitys seven deadly sins.

In some religious groups, wealth was a symbol of probable salvation and high morals, and fatness a sign of wealth and well-being.
