Applebee's Brownie Bite Sparks Online Debate Over Portion Sizes and Advertising
A recent social media post by user 'jessicadanyelll' has sparked discussion about portion sizes and advertising accuracy in casual dining. The user shared her experience after visiting an Applebee's location in the United States to pick up a 'brownie bite' dessert, which she had ordered online using a gift card. The video documents her anticipation, contrasting it with the perceived reality of the product received. 'They're advertising a brownie bite, they're making it look real good, got the ice cream on the side, got the brownie looking like a thick slice of cheesecake with the hot fudge drizzled over it,' the user stated in her voice-over, expressing her excitement. However, upon opening the container, she revealed a small, triangular piece of brownie, significantly smaller than what she felt was depicted in the advertisement. 'I pick up the container and I'm like, 'Hmm, this kind of light.' I'm like, 'What's going on?'' she recounted. 'So I open it and this is what I get. Like they were not lying when they said it was a brownie bite because all it's going to take for me to do that is to take one little bite and that brownie is going to be gone. I was so disappointed.' The post has resonated with viewers, raising questions about consumer expectations and the presentation of food items in restaurant marketing.
