FRESSEN

The “men” eat steaks. They drink sour beers. They burp. They don’t use towels. They are hungry as hell. They have higher energy consumption. “Women,” on the other hand, eat a colorful salad and cereal for breakfast. They only want a small piece of cake. They do low-carb. They know what’s healthy. They are already totally full. They are hungry. The “women” cook, the “men” eat. We see it: Lots of Sexism and Fatfobia in our Schnitzel!

Henrike Iglesias says: WTF?! Everyone is hungry and everyone should be able to eat! But how can we do that? In their culinary show, the performers* serve up society’s obsession with food to the audience, while devouring whatever is in their way.
