When I was a tween/young teen, there was a super morbidly obese woman who lived in my town and I’m beginning to think it’s a shame TikTok wasn’t around in those days as she would have been raking it in.
She had a tiny car (well, it seemed tiny as she was wearing it like a gillet but it was probably a standard family car) that she would have to pour herself into, and then she’d spend all day driving to different takeaways and scranning in the car, 7 days a week. You’d literally see her parked up eating a pizza at 1pm, then a kebab and chips at 3pm, a cheeky McDonald’s around dinner time, and then just eating into the night. Every day.
The local kids would make fun of her. The poor woman smelled awful- she was so huge and these were the days before internet shopping and extremely large sizes so she zero clothes options and used to wear the same thing every day- multicoloured leggings (it was the 90s), black t-shirt, huge wide slippers (the ones designed for old people with very swollen feels and ankles- with the little Velcroed flap), and a fluffy bright blue cardigan- we used to call her Cookie Monster.
I remember being in a takeaway once when she came in to order. She worded her order so it sounded like she was getting food for multiple people- something like “two burgers but one without cheese because my mother hates cheese, three pieces of chicken, plain chips, chips with cheese, a Diet Coke, and a Fanta”.
The takeaway staff just kind of sniggered and nodded- she was in there at least five times a week and used to eat all the food parked up right outside their window.
Anyway, I haven’t thought of her for years until I saw Becks stuffing food into her gob in a recent video. I assume Cookie is long dead now- in hindsight, she was probably only in her early 30s when I knew of her.
Or maybe the advent of food ordering apps like Deliveroo means she’s still alive but doesn’t have to go out.
