==Plot==
At the mayor's office, the mayor suggests installing vending machines in Aberdale's elementary schools to "boost student's moral". As both Aberdale Elementary and West Aberdale Elementary had been informed about the request, they accept the offer. Brenda Firnwecket, CEO of the Snack Packer brand, has her brand of snacks installed the school's vending machines after having helped finance said machines. As they were installed, all the students (save for Jeff, who chose to stick with his own lunch) try out the Snack Packer snacks.
Two weeks later, the students have put on a noticeable amount of weight after trying out the vending machine Snack Packers, including Clarence and Sumo. Jeff, suspicious of the students' gains, reads the Snack Packers' ingredients and finds that they have artificial preservatives as well as sugary and buttery contents. Going to Ms. Baker for help, she finds herself at wit's end by either criticism and reason if she removes the vending machines; leaving Jeff to tell the students himself, with little success. Two more weeks later, Jeff finds his fellow classmates now morbidly obese to the point where one of the students has outgrown their clothes (notable Kimby, now wearing a sleeveless dress that fits her). As he and his friends head over to Clarence's house to hang, Jeff also finds Mary effected by the Snack Packers as Clarence has been returning home with whatever amount he can bring home, while Chad hadn't been effected since he has started going on a diet. Later that night, Chad and Mary had invited Jeff and Sumo along with them and Clarence at Chuckelton's for dinner. During dinner, Jeff discovers that the Snack Packers have also effected the consumer's hunger after watching Clarence, Sumo and Mary gorging on their food. After dinner, Mary suddenly gets stuck in her seat, which unfortunately attracts everyone's attention. Jeff, in response, decides to start a protest rally.
Heading down to the Snack Packer factory downtown, Jeff leads the protesters there and enters the factory to talk to Brenda about how her product is effecting the student bodies, as well as others who have tried it, to which Brenda replies that Aberdale was the only city left in the world who would accept her company's brand after being turned down by the criticism. As she tries to shoo him out, Jeff notices the woman on the back of the wrapper resembles Brenda, but more skinnier; Brenda notices as well and reminisces on the times she had eaten her brand from the stress of losing clients. She realizes the error of her ways and decides to close down her business and revamp it. As the vending machines had been uninstalled from the schools and Brenda's new brand called "Health Packs" were available everywhere, Jeff helps all the students back in shape.
