28 pages; Penny Peephole Publications, 1992
4 in. x 9 in. Softcover Chapbooklet
This delicious little treat was well on its way to becoming the world's biggest little best-selling mail order chapbooklet when two things happened. Its 19th printing had nearly sold out when an agent from the Food & Drug Administration paid author Wanda Sue Parrott a surprise visit to inform her
someone in Boston reported she was practicing medicine without a license. Not wishing to be cited for mail order fraud, she stopped advertising. The man from FDA read the booklet, said, "This has nothing to do with medicine. It's a collection of recipes." The author said, "Yes, and I am a writer so I give each one a title. They are my personal secrets to staying the same size for more than four decades. I am sharing what worked for me, including: never get on a scale." No charges were filed and the SUPER SECRET FAT MELTING RECIPE was home free. However, the rapid revolution that was the death knell for the thriving mail order business was already in motion. E-commerce via the internet had arrived. Wanda Sue tucked a few Fat Melt booklets away and recently decided to offer them at the same low price for which they sold back in 1992. Before sending in an order, consider the non-medical meaning of the booklet's closing admonition:
If you're serious about melting down fat and flushing it away, be certain you have access to a nearby restroom before attempting any of the tips given in these pages. Philosophically speaking, forearmed is forewarned...
