Store Apologizes After Using Fat Shaming Sizing Chart
GLASGOW, UNITED KINGDOM - OCTOBER 10: An overweight person walks through Glasgow city centre on October 10, 2006 in Glasgow, Scotland. According to government health maps published today, people in the north of England lead less healthy lifestyles compared to those in the south. The United Kingdom is also the fattest country in Europe, according to a new study of obesity rates to be released today. The "Health Profile of England" report, compiled from government data, said some 24 percent of people in England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland are obese.

A store is being blasted for “fate shaming”
Photos from inside an RT-Mart showed a sizing chart listing plus-sizes as “horrible” and “rotten” while smaller sizes as “slim” and “beautiful.” The chain retailer issued a statement after receiving backlash and said the chart was an isolated incident.
All signs at the store have reportedly been taken down.
