Default Copying from another forum

I saw this in another forum and it looked fun so I thought I'd copy it here.

So, since you started your weight loss journey, whose stock will be going down?

Mine:

Mike and Ikes (and other candies in the grocery store)...yeah. Love those, and could down a box like no problem. They probably sell zero boxes now.

1/2 gallons of ice cream: (Although I eat the Skinny Cow ice cream sandwiches to get my ice cream fix)

Pizza places: Pizza Hut and my work are both wondering why pizza sales are so low.

Pepsi: Why do we suddenly have overstock of Diet Dr. Pepper???

Publix Bakery will have an overstock of chocolate cake
Taco Bell

Go Roma
- Where's that girl that used to come every Saturday and order for takeout a pasta meal, a pizza meal and a minestrone soup with her friends (little did they know I always said this is for me and my girlfriends when actually it was just me)

Deli in the Supermarket Below Me
- Wow we have a lot of chicken salad left over...

My Mom
- My fridge seems awfully full...

Willamette Noddle Company
- (Asia is my name) They joke when I call and say to just ask for the Asia special. I haven't eaten there in a couple months now, they must have an overstock of fett alfredo and cheesy bread.

thats hilarious. I'm pretty sure doritos is taking it pretty hard. And taco bell probably has some tumbleweeds blowing through the drive-through lane....not to mention the shocking low quarter sales that I'm sure Don Pablos will be fretting about. I actually am surprised sometimes at what I used to eat and consider a normal meal....no wonder I packed on the pounds in the first place.

Haha..hilarious idea

Pepsi...for sure is missing me

Lays..oh those regular rippled chips are now just sitting in the aisle, looking and wondering where I am.

Tim Hortons..well, atleast they have some extra "everything bagel, toasted, with herb and garlic cream cheese" to go around to others And my coffee intake has gone down a bit, so they took a hit there too

FUN!

All pizza parlors within a 5 mile radius are going out of business.
Pepsi Cola Co. took a huge hit, may have to start lay offs.
Krispy Kreme's "Hot" light has been off for weeks. The demand for fresh donuts has plummeted.

I daresay my local Baskin Robbins is considering shutting up shop...or at least no longer ordering some particular flavours.. mmm, chocolate chip cookie dough...

Also I would think the Australian Dairy Industry may be suffering due to lack of camembert and blue brie cheese sales.

Having said that, however, I think they may know deep down that I'll be back anyway... don't know whether that's happy or sad...
