Frank Sinatra Controlling The Mafia's Assault On Low Carb Restaurants

An older, but still vibrant, Sinatra is leading a controversial underworld fight for Italian food.

Two weeks ago we reported about the terror in the restaurant industry as Mafia tough guys are beating up chefs and vandalizing restaurants that serve “low carb” food. (Click to read about this!) Meltingclocktimes.com sources have learned that Frank Sinatra is working behind the scenes orchestrating things. Sinatra, who tired of being in the limelight, took Elvis Presley's advice and faked his death. (Click to read about this!) Then last spring Sinatra, after missing music and performing, went on tour with a punk rock band. (Click to read about this!) People always suspected that Sinatra had ties to the underworld. Now Sinatra, according to our source, wants to put to rest suspicions people have about his Mafia connections. However, at the same time Sinatra is aiming to transform the organization into a force of good.

While this Mafia thug violence has appalled many people, including low carb enthusiasts and law enforcement officials, other people see this Mafia assault as a fight for the preservation of traditional Italian food. ”I gotta hand it to ol' blue eyes,” says Georgio Linquinni, a traditional Italian restaurant owner. “First he had that great singing career. Now, he could be taking it easy in retirement, but he is fighting for pizza and pastasciutta. Bravo for Sinatra!”

Sinatra grew up in a traditional Italian family in Hoboken, New Jersey. He visited Italy numerous times and the Italians love him as well as the Americans do. Hence it makes sense that Sinatra loves Italian food and feels compelled to fight to keep it wholesome, pure and traditional.

“I think Sinatra understands that Italian food is perhaps the greatest in the world, and that it would be nothing without carbohydrates,” says Italian food analyst for Food Trends magazine Tyronne Giubeespi. “Could you imagine eating pizza without dough? Or pasta without noodles? If these low carb nuts would have their way this is what people would be confronted with. This is an affront to not just Italians, but to anyone who loves good food. “

Italian food is perhaps the most popular cuisine all over the world. There are pizza parlors in every country on Earth. Even France, also famous for their cuisine, has thousands of Italian restaurants. However, there are almost no French restaurants in Italy.

Other people are alarmed by Sinatra's lead in the low carb restaurant assault. “I have always been a big Sinatra fan and I was happy to hear that he is still alive,” says Hilda McBoomboom. “However, if Sinatra is really involved in this anti low carb crusade I will spend the five or six hours a day I sit on the couch watching other singers on TV and on DVDs as a protest. I went down from 400 pounds to 300 pounds on the Adkins diet. If people want they should be able to sit their fat ass on the couch and eat only protein.”

Low carb restaurant owners like Gerald McBlubin are complaining, “When I'm home I will be sitting my ass on the couch and listening to Tony Bennett. I urge everyone to boycott Sinatra music and Italian hi-carb food. I went from 450 pounds to 325 myself. Mafia thugs beat up two of my chefs I have had three thousand bucks worth of broken windows and the cops are doing nothing. The thugs would have beaten me up also if I didn't threaten to sit on them. Mr. Sinatra should be in jail.”

Law enforcement agencies have not issued any arrest warrants against Sinatra. “We are not even sure he is alive,” says Hoboken District Attorney Antonio Mototesta. “There is also some good evidence that disoriented low flying birds caused a lot of these low carb restaurant broken windows.”
