Part of what needs to happen to make it so that a piece of cake isn't 1500 calories is that everyone knows what the calorie counts are on things. A little bit of Cheesecake Factory shaming would be great. Shaming people does no one any good.


You think shaming works better for corporations than for people? Fat does not seem to be your biggest issue.

On the contrary, societies that consider being fat very shameful - like the japanese - have very low rates of obesity. In cultures in the US where fat is accepted, obesity is much higher.

Shaming works.

OP, I agree. How on earth can desserts be that many calories! One of those desserts is my intake for the entire day. It is just disgusting.

Here's an FYI for you, having been very overweight at one point in my adult life. A fat person WOULD NOT CARE.

True, but it sounds like Op needs a wake up call.


What is wrong with you? She just asked a totally innocent question and you called her fat for no reason. You, pp, are one of the people that make this forum way more mean-spirited than it needs to be.

Yes. That is about average for a restaurant portion. That is why you should never eat one by yourself!
