You are so not alone; dessert is my least favorite thing on the menu.

Coco etc. Is a great place, personally knowing a chef or two, I can tell you that even if you are not a huge dessert fan that you can find something to nibble on here.

I think the most important part of this post is BJC's commentary on fashion. I am 6'1", and I now wear a medium or even a small. I can no longer wear 32" pants because they are too big. But smaller waisted pants are correspondingly too short. That's why I shop in Vancouver, where the people are sized appropriately.

This is what happens when America eats at places like Coco. They get huge, and the fashion industry keeps fooling people into believing they ain't fat by sizing clothes accordingly. That's why your XL is extra huge.

Must be nice Tall Drink of H2O to be able to pass judgment on something you apparently have no idea about.

While I do believe American's are getting fatter by the moment, lets not forget that it's comments like yours who make people hate themselves for not being "smaller than a size 32" which to be honest, is a little tiny in my opinion.

Oh, and the fashion industry never has catered to a fatter audience...anorexia, bulemia and overeating cater to the fashion industry.

Wake up. We ALL need to get healthy.

Unknown, eyes on the crisis, please. The point is that I am a size 32 (maybe even a 34 in some cuts) and a large, but clothes are no longer sized in a way that makes any sense. My observations are exactly on par with Bethany's comments (an XL that is "truly enormous" and bears no relation to the size on the tag). And furthermore, don't give me any of your politically correct b.s. about unhealthy people hating themselves because of my comments. What obligation do I have to make people who won't take care of their own health feel better about the terrible things they are doing to their bodies? I am no Jennifer Anniston or Brad Pitt by any stretch of the imagination, and my comments had nothing to do with image or the way people look (although I do find healthy people most attracive--not those who are too thin or too fat--which I believe has its roots somewhere in natural selection). Nor did I argue that being a 32 is ideal--I simply observed that clothes are now made and sized to fool people into believing they are smaller than they are. It is fashion's way of enabling over-consumption; bad habits; laziness, and foolish, unobtainable ideals.

I also thought it ironic that the t-shirt in question came from a restaurant devoted entirely to dessert.

I've always thought the near-universal female preoccupation with chocolate was weird. I can take it or leave it; it's no great thing to me one way or the other. Greasy, salty potato chips, on the other hand...
