This is cool and all but just cuz somebody is plus sized doesnt mean u need to call their cells fat. Thats kinda fucked up.

My dude, the person isn't being called fat ๐Ÿ˜Š, though reading the article that way makes it kinda morbidly hilarious.

The type of cells are adipose cells, which are also called fat cells, because they store fat in them.
