UK – A discount store has been branded ‘disgusting’ and ‘irresponsible’ for stocking bathroom scales with a ‘pro-anorexia’ slogan. A shopper took a picture of the scales on sale at B&M stores which have the slogan ‘nothing tastes as good as skinny feels’ emblazoned across them. Supermodel Kate Moss was criticized for making the remarks in 2009 after she was asked what her mottos were in an interview with a fashion website. Rachel May Shevlin posted the picture on Facebook and urged people to write to B&M Stores to complain about the product. The scales have caused a massive backlash online with others turning to Twitter to vent their frustration at the product, accusing it of sending an irresponsible message to vulnerable people.
