It makes me wonder if skinny people buying junk food get the same reaction. I have an acquaintance who works in the store, and now that I think of it, the only time I ever hear a comment out of her is when one of several obese customers come in and buys junk.

Although, it's funny that I've only actually heard a comment out LOUD from a clerk when it was a skinny person ahead of me buying bags of chips, doughnuts, etc... She said "Wow, it sure must be nice to be able to eat ALL THAT!" then laughed. How did she know that the girl wasn't, in fact, bulemic or something? I guess since our fat is so very visible, our problems are out there for everyone to see and draw conclusions on.
