Egg or is it Noodles, on Your Face

Here's a twist. https://www.rt.com/news/451546-russia-ad-restaurant-shaming/  It seems that the noodle company, Tanuki, posted an add of an obese girl next to a skinny one.  The message stated that fat girls eat pizza and skinny girls eat Tanuki noodle.

The problem is the model they used is Whitney Thore.  She is the spokesperson against body shaming.  She has a hormone disorder and campaigns against body image stereotypes. 

An apology resulted and the ad removed.  Research Tanuki, research!
