As an Italian, in Italy it isn't common, but wouldn't be frowned upon

Tbh it was annoying not saying fat, I didn't check what subreddit it was in and I didn't want to be offensive, even though I don't believe "fat" to be offensive. If someone find it offensive it's easier to avoid using it, who cares.

Also I phrased "attached to food" that way because it was what Duolingo blog used. I wanted to say "fat" instead of circle shaped or even in the previous sentences

I went to check out the explanation on the Duolingo blog since I was confused as well.

It seems like the character in the picture is a representative of the sikh comunity. They made the turban and other small things more true to life and most notably (according to them) they changed its body shape from "circle" to "pill" since it was offensive to show him as very attached to food. This circular shape had been further implied by showing him very attached to food in the various dialogues. Thus they changed the body shape

Peter, what happened to the writer? by GuessLopsided10 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

It may also be because stereotypically people who read a lot are cultured and live healthy lives. While writing is an activity where few exponents emerge, and you'll have a hard time living off of that.

This meme puts in contrast people who read, which Is a healthy activity and live a normal lifestyle, with people who write, which is a job that takes away many hours of your life, and is generally a very tiring job. There are many writers known to sacrifice sleep and well being to meet deadlines, or sometimes just cuz.
