"Honey, you aren't chubby. Your friends are just really too thin. You are perfectly fine the way you are... Oh! I forgot, I bought you some new clothes, have some Chubbettes..."
The girl in that add isn't even chubby, she looks like a normal weight to me. I guess that's part of the point of the ad, but...
She looks normal weight because she's wearing Chubbettes 😉

Of course she looks like a normal weight. The Chubettes are doing their job!

I know, it's just crazy to me that throughout history, if you weren't teetering on anorexia, you were fat.
Don't forget... "you'll look yummy in these new Chubettes!" 🤮
