Why does Al Roker always get saddled with those segments about depression, fat, weight loss, fat, misery, more fat, and more about why we’re getting fatter?

Do the producers do their planning meeting, see a story come up regarding fatties and their fat, and think Al Roker is just the man to give it to?

Then, have you noticed they always have him do the cooking segments, too.

So here Al, reflect on fat, then stand over here and comment on this delicious cake, have a taste, and rave about its yummy goodness to all of America.

Poor Al Roker. Give the man a break.
