Chester's Lunch Kit & Favorite Haunts

How Chester's Lunch Equaled an Unhealthy Chester

The Childhood Years, a Typical School Lunch Kit

Before school started the new year, Chester's Mom bought him a snazzy lunch kit that had a racecar on the front. It also had a thermos but the first time that Chester took his lunch, it leaked and spoiled everything in his kit except his banana. That was the last of Chester's thermos.

Chester's Mom got up early every school morning to pack his lunch. It wasn't easy finding things that would keep until lunch time at school. However, with both Mom and Dad off of the low cholesterol diet again, Chester's lunch kit looked a bit more inviting these days.

Mom usually packed a peanut butter and grape jelly sandwich, a cluster of potato chips wrapped in plastic wrap, a banana, and then she gave Chester 25 cents for a carton of milk and an ice cream.  

Chester liked the chocolate milk, the full-blown, no-skim milk, chocolate milk.  And he liked those ice cream sandwiches a lot. He liked undressing the ice cream, eating one cookie-side of the ice cream down as far as possible, then switching to the other side, and then finishing with the block of melty vanilla ice cream.

Some days Chester would trade food with his friends. He particularly liked the chocolate cupcakes and the pink cakes that looked like snowballs.

He also liked his new teacher and was getting much higher marks in school now. In fact, he liked her so much that he decided that when he grew up, he was going to marry her.

The Adult Years, a Typical Working Lunch

Chester's lunch kit was comprised of a sweet little deli located on Fifth and Vine that had a cheeseburger that was the Cat's Meow! Due to his wife Bertha being a food critic, he had sampled all the exotic and fine cuisine that life had to offer. For Chester, it was now cheeseburgers, rings and an occasional pizza. He was hooked on burgers and the more cheese it contained the better - as well as all the sides such as onion rings and fries - and even those hot green pepper filled with white cheese. So yum!

Over the weekends, he would drag out his new gas grill and cook enough meat to feed a family of ten. Not being one to waste anything, Chester worked hard in polishing off all the meat before the new week started.

At this point, Chester had a very high cholesterol diet. He was intent in changing his bad diet to a good diet, but he just didn't have the time or the willpower to accomplish that feat at this point in his life.

But soon, things would change....
