Diet Starts Monday Hats

The diet that starts Monday is one of the most durable jokes in food culture. A 2003 essay on the habit explains why it has to be a Monday: starting a diet on a Friday, Saturday or Sunday would be insane, and Monday is one of those good start-over days. The postponement is the whole point, and the joke is old enough to have a pedigree. "I'm on a seafood diet, whenever I see food I eat it" has been in print since 1970, and baseball manager Tommy Lasorda was telling it by 1977. The audience is huge. A 2026 YouGov poll found that eating healthier was a top New Year's resolution for 22 percent of Americans, second only to exercising more at 25 percent, and women were more likely than men to resolve to lose weight. The people who made that resolution and the people who keep restarting it are the same crowd. These diet hats are for them. The badge names the eternal start date. The sentence designs carry the seafood diet, the cheat day that never ends, a diet that is still in the planning phase, calories burned by worrying about the plan, and the salad that is only what my food eats. Every design is custom embroidered on an unstructured dad hat. Wear one to the gym you are not going to, or give one to the friend whose diet starts Monday.
