Absolutely agree, Gary! The occasional indulgence in something like
brownies or a slice of pie or cake, no problem. But some people go
overboard when it comes to recipes like this, thinking hey, it's got
vegetables in it! Must be good for me, I'll eat the whole pan!

I get irritated when I see all these ads on TV for the so-called "diet"
systems - Nutrisystem and Weight Watchers come to mind. They go out of
their way to point out all the DESSERTS you can eat. Come on, folks.
Just because they sell you some faux sweet treat doesn't mean you should
be eating it every day.
