The Food Network: Porn for Fat People?

I know that Saturday Night Live is meant to be funny and most of the time, it is but I saw an older episode yesterday that had something in it that I thought was just ridiculous! They did a spoof ad for The Food Network and the tag line was THE FOOD NETWORK: PORN FOR FAT PEOPLE.

Since when? I don’t know about you but I don’t find myself getting “hot and bothered” when I watch an episode of 30 Minute Meals. The thought of watching Emeril cook a pot roast does not make me all weak in the knees nor does the sight of Bobby Flay grilling a steak does not make me swoon. Would a “Fat People” orgy be a group of overweight people all cooking and baking together in the nude? Or maybe Rachel Ray and Martha Stewart’s magazines are the new Playboy and Hustler magazines

Why is the assumption made that just because someone is overweight that they are obsessed with food? EVERYONE likes food! No matter what the Super Models say, they like it too! You know they meet at Taco Bell at 2am once a week and have a pig out session. But I digress…… I know some thin people who are pretty obsessed with food. I bet it can be a trigger for anorexia for some. But PORN for Fat People?? That is just ridiculous!
