What? That doesn't make any sense! Apples are FULL of sugar!!! Oh you Brits. Always doing things backwards. I remember when I visited London, and there I am, driving like normal on the correct side of the road......and there were issues.

I suppose like all metaphors it's not a 1-1 in literal verbiage but more about the meaning it's supposed to represent.

The meaning it's supposed to represent is: Eating healthy food will keep you healthier, and help you get ill less often. You won't need medical treatment as much if you keep yourself healthy.

I wonder why they drive backwards. Is it because they had cars before standardization?
