Diet bars causing controversy
Forever 21 has apologised for offending customers after it posted them out free diet bars with their orders.
The clothing giant's gift of a lemon bar from Atkins has been called fatphobic, insensitive and harmful.

The company says it sometimes surprises customers with free test products.
This. Is. DISGUSTING.

It also says the diet bars were included in all online orders across all sizes, and weren't meant to offend.
