Is there anyone who has ever eaten or even looked at a Percy Pig and thought 'there's a healthy snack!'.

I've managed to get to the age of 64 without ever having heard of Percy Pig, however, having looked at the packaging my mind said "not healthy".
When he moves I watch him from behind
He turns and laughter flickers in his eyes
Intent and direct when he speaks, I watch his lips

Does this obesity campaign think they're not fattening enough, or is it in fact an anti-obesity campaign?

I could do with putting on a little weight at the moment. Do you think seeking out one of these Percy Pig things, which Like TV I had never heard of, and eating it is recommended?!!
