Type in “pica psychological disorder” in google, it is also listed in the diagnostic and statistical manual for psychological disorders as a eating disorder.Pica is a medical disorder characterized by an appetite for substances largely non-nutritive (e.g., coal, soil, feces, chalk, paper, soap, mucus, ash, gum etc. ) or an abnormal appetite for some things that may be considered foods.

I was wondering the same thing. You can dress someone up to look fat but I don’t see how you could fake thin.

I love the onion but making fun of sick people is a little much for me. Anorexia leads to death over a third of the time. If I were a younger man I would say the people who produced this video need a good old fashioned bitch-slapping…. I suppose we can just let their karma catch up with them instead…

Actually although this is satire their is a psychological disorder called “pica”..I think, its where people basically obsessively munch on the things she’s talking about

Oh my god the Onion writers and actors are great. I love the show. I am amazed by some people not realizing that all their shows are ironic views on world and mass media problems. They really have something with the Chinese , saw at least 5 skits about this topic. Well done, Onion! Always make me laugh.

i wondered about that too. my guess is she’s an anorexic who recently developed an insight into her problem, and she’s using this sketch as a way to help her change her life.
