> Sugar is everywhere, cheap, legal and culturally important (birthday parties, weddings, farewell parties, etc).

Those should all be rare occasions.

You don't work in a very big office before there is birthday cake in the break room on the regular. Or the Girl Scout cookies someone's parents are desperately trying to get rid of. Or the left-over pastries from that executive meeting. Or your manager brought in a box of donuts to "boost morale"...

Dieting in an office setting is often quite difficult

One more reason for people not wanting to return to the office I guess.

In a social environment these things are not rare. I wish. But ppl dont stop having these birthdays distributed all over the year. :)

Not rare at all for an average family with kids.
