Woman Claims Double Charge for 'Eating Too Much' at 'Fat Shaming' Buffet
Newsweek ^ | 7/14/2022 | Shira Li Bartov

A woman has claimed she was charged double for "eating too much" at an all-you-can-eat buffet.

Blogger Poppy Jones, who lives in the United Kingdom, told the story in a TikTok video on Tuesday, quickly racking up 76,000 views. She responded to another TikToker's prompt asking for the "wildest way you have ever been fat shamed."

"I once went to an all-you-can-eat buffet," Jones said. "And when the bill came, I noticed they charged me twice. I questioned it and said why—and they said I ate too much."

She added in the comments section that she was at the buffet with a former partner, but the staff singled her out for the double charge. She argued with them and walked out paying only the flat rate, she said.

Jones giggled through the clip, but told viewers in a comment that she has fought for her mental health through a "body positive movement/empowerment journey."

"Luckily for me, I am able to laugh these comments off but I realize others can't and it makes me sad," she said.

20 stone is 280 lb, or a little over 127 kg.

I have a friend who owned an all you can eat buffet. He personally watched who was eating and forced them to have the same plate as the first one. It helped because they would do the entree of roast or chicken, along with veggies and potatoes. Then come back for the starches.... He would kick them out for digging in for only the most expensive stuff... nobody sued, and the people he kicked out would come back over and over and over....I mean like tomorrow and the next day. So they like the food and the price...maybe even liked being limited

EXACTLY!

I think about the crud that’s hanging off the arms hovering over the food, and the mucus flying through the air from coughing and sneezing landing on it.

I refuse to eat from pig troughs.
