WATCH: Woman fat-shamed at restaurant
Updated | By The Workzone with Elana Afrika-Bredenkamp
A British woman shared her experience of visiting a buffet restaurant and being fat shamed. The restaurant charged her more for supposedly eating too much.
Buffets are not for everyone, but they certainly are a popular option for people who want to enjoy various types of food in one sitting.
It is a great value for money option as well when you are hard on cash and want the option to eat as much as you want.
"For one British woman, it was all joy whilst dining out at an all-you-can-eat buffet restaurant - until she was charged for eating 'too much'." (MSN)

Poppy Paints shared her experience on TikTok and claimed that she was “fat-shamed” at an all-you-can-eat restaurant.
She went on to say that the restaurant charged her double the rate because she 'ate too much'. Ironic isn't it, considering it is was an "all-you-eat restaurant".
"When she inquired about the price, she was told she had eaten “too much”. In the comments, the TikTok user revealed that she refused to double-pay for the meal, writing that she “argued and only paid for the one flat rate." (MSN)

We love how she completely made things light-hearted in her response to the restaurant's stupidity.
Fat shaming is not acceptable ever.
Many people used the comments section to share their own experiences with fat shaming, whilst others brought up the fact that it was an all-you-can-eat buffet!
