Weight Watchers Recipe Cards of The 70s

April 25, 2012 by Chris Durso

American cuisine was horrifying enough in the 1970s. Now, add calorie counting and recipes supplied by a company whose primary objective is to make sure that you starve, and you get Weight Watchers recipe cards from 1974.

And it’s no wonder why the company has been so successful. Just looking at such recipes as Cabbage Casserole Czarina and Fluffy Mackerel Pudding, the cards are effective enough to ruin appetites here in 2012. Well done, Weight Watchers.

See more frightening cuisine here.

The French Bring The Sexy Back To Weight Loss In New Weight Watchers Campaign

January 19, 2012 by Chris Durso

And here we thought that French women didn’t get fat. Well, apparently they do. And where there are fat people, there is Weight Watchers, happy to accept your monthly fee. Seen here in this campaign for Weight Watchers, the French show their incredible knack for taking something terribly unsexy — like weight loss — and creating borderline porn.

Urging chubby Frenchmen to ‘Treat Yourself Better,’ the new campaign is focused around overly glossed lips, toying with food in the most suggestive ways possible. Although, some people seeing the commercial and print ads might not know whether to call Weight Watchers or dim the lights, we must give props for creativity. After all, they did avoid the easy sell by not using corn dogs and tacos.
