Consume
Every company strives to be fatter. They want heft. Girth.
To achieve this, they need you to consume. And consume some more. Super-size up. When they announce their weight on earnings day, they want the bettors by the scales to be amazed and heap praise. They want to be the prize pig.
Many of them need you to literally stuff your face. They need you to eat and drink more and more often. Big Gulp. KFC Double Down. Starbucks Trenta. In order to hit their growth goals, they need your waistline to grow.
Companies pay millions to beg us daily to willingly embrace unhealthy acts. Their survival depends on our poor health choices. Would you like chips, pickles, cookies, or a chicken smoothie with that? Of course!
Yet while we’re thrust new edible concoctions, we’re told how thin to be. On one side of the checkout counter are chocolate bars, on the other are beautiful People and new bikini Us. Fatties can’t find love on TV, only frozen yogurt, silly. TV is for Shake Weights, not weighty shakes. Dropped sizes, ripped abs, and (two all-beef patties special sauce lettuce cheese pickles onions on) toned buns.
It’s impossible.
