On his radio show Oct. 22, 2010, Dennis said: Most Of What You Want Isn’t Good For You. It will not make you happy. The list is so long that I could spend the rest of the show just listing common things we want that aren’t good for us, such as food.<\/p>\n
On the road, I go to grocery stores to pick up food to eat that is semi-healthy. The food available at 7\/11 and airports is largely junk. There is almost nothing in there that I don’t want to eat. I want to be buried with M&M peanuts next to me. I love M&Ms.<\/p>\n
