"A burger please!" "No! The Govt says it's bad for you!" "Some chips then!" "No! The Govt says it's bad!" "A fizzy drink?" "Bad!" "Choccy bar?" "No!" "Ok! just gimme the party pills!" "What flavour?" 19 April, 2005

Shows a young boy wearing a baseball cap backwards at a shop trying to buy 'unhealthy' foods. He asks for "A burger please!" but the shop assistant behind the counter tells him "No! The Govt says it's bad for you!". The boy then asks for "Some chips then!". Again the shop assistant tells him "No! The Govt says it's bad!". The boy asks then for a fizzy drink and a chocolate bar and is told both are bad. The boy alternatively says "Ok! Just gimme the party pills! and the assistant replies "What flavour?". Refers to the government strict regulations around unhealthy foods yet relatively relaxed rules around the distribution and sale of party pills which are illegal in many other countries.
