Today is Eat Your Vegetable Day 2014, and if you are like me, then this “holiday” is pretty close to a waking nightmare. Yes, vegetables are good; we all have been known to enjoy a salad now and then. But let’s ask the hard-hitting questions, do vegetables really need their own national holiday.

If you would like to join me and celebrate the deliciousness of all foods, and not just vegetables, then check out these top 25 quotes about our not-so-healthy habits. These funny sayings not only tease all those vegetarians and vegans, but also dismiss the endless diet myth. Diets are not fun; eating a salad will never be as satisfying as digging into a burger.
