Fitness Advertising on Facebook

Health and Fitness advertisements are swamping the left column of my facebook page/browser/whatever you want to call it. What if I feel like seeing a non-fitness advertisement every once and a while?
Facebook's Advertising system allows advertisers to target you based on age, sex, region, and the biggy - keywords. Since I am obsessed with fitness, and I'm always fitness networking, my left column is always some picture of a ripped stomach and telling me that I can get 6-pack abs in 5 minutes.
It's kind of crazy how my initial interest in fitness makes me a target for NOTHING BUT fitness. With all of these targeted advertisement marketing engines that are being utilized by facebook and google, will we ever be exposed to something new? I admit, I'm big time into fitness and every once and a while I see a neat ad that I'm suckered into clicking - but eventually I get really sick of being told I should be on this new fad diet.
Is it just me, or does everyone else get mostly fitness advertisements as well?
Also, I have "penguins" listed as one of my interests on facebook... I thought it was funny when I got an "Adopt a Penguin ad" - gotta love targeted advertisements.
I named him Pablo.
