Hiking Trip Hunger Games ️
Our hiking heroines set off on their 3-day adventure, only to discover that one of them has packed a diet-friendly meal plan consisting of apples, oranges, bananas, and saltine crackers. Despite the experienced hiker’s concerns, her friend insists she’ll be fine because she’s on a diet. But soon enough, the dieting diva devours all her fruit and starts eating her friend’s food too! As the trip goes on, the food supply dwindles, and tensions rise. Our hungry hiker gets angry, accuses her friend of being a b**ch, and continues to eat most of the food. ️ On the last day, they run out of food, and the dieting diva complains nonstop about her hunger. Once they finish the hike, she breaks down in tears, blaming her friend for her diet failure. So, who’s really to blame here? Let’s see what the internet thinks about this dramatic hiking debacle…
