Food is every where. If you're sad- you eat. If you're happy- you eat. If you're bored- you eat. As a society the relationship with food is complicated, if you're fat, the relationship might as well be the latest wordle puzzle, because it's almost unsolvable. Michaela and Scarlett unpack their relationships with food, eating on dates, and eating in a society obsessed with putting down fat people for simply existing. A few tears and a couple rants later, we create a place where we're comfortable to be real.
