Bacon

Dear Cardiology Patient,

Although I have no evidence that you have coronary artery disease and your work up for chest pain has been completely negative, I cannot, in good faith, let you have a regular diet while you are on the cardiology service. While you are in the hospital, you will comply with the low sodium, low fat, low cholesterol diet.  My apologies.

Now excuse me, I have to get down to the cafeteria before all of the bacon is gone.

Your friendly cardiology resident,

CBart, MD
