      I know you’re joking, but the spending went up when people stopped taking it, so the findings are pretty interesting, albeit not very surprising.

    The drug is so powerful it’s even caused reduced grocery spending among those who do not take it. It seems all that is needed is a cousin, neighbor or anyone living within a hundred kilometer radius.

    Science is baffled

    It’s almost as if just reducing grocery spend would have the same effect

      It would. The point of these drugs is to reduce appetite so that you can control those spendings better.
