TikToker Calls Out Postmates ‘Bottom-Friendly Menu’ For Ripping Off His Content

It’s Pride Month everyone! We all know it’s not Pride Month without rainbow capitalism making its resurgence. You know rainbow capitalism? Our dear friend that only likes to visit once a year and only gifts tacky rainbow socks to celebrate Pride? Well this year, our friend that doesn’t care to read the room decided to switch it up for a change. We’re talking about Postmates. 

Postmates debuted its “bottom-friendly menu” earlier this month. The campaign is so exclusive that they only chose the gayest cities in the nation for its premiere, Los Angeles and New York. The ad stars an abundance of foods with a sexual slant: eggplant tops, peach bottoms, and cupcake drag queens. The bottom-friendly menu was put together with the help of an anal surgeon, and the goal of the menu is to eat without starving by avoiding insoluble fiber like whole wheat, potatoes, and more.

After its debut, viewers brought the menu to the attention of Alex Hall, who found the odd parallels between the Postmates campaign and the content he makes for TikTok and YouTube. Alex Hall is known as The Bottom’s Digest on social media, and he makes bottom-friendly recipes that he researches with his husband. The recipes they use are tested on a group that doesn’t solely include white, gay men.

Hall has posted these recipes on social media every week since June of last year. The Bottom’s Digest is not only about creating food for all types of bottoms to enjoy but decrease the stigma around bottoming. The hard work Hall puts into these recipes shows, and he’s understandably upset, calling the Postmates campaign a “30-day money grab.” 

Hall’s content has been important in destigmatizing bottoming, so he expressed his disappointment with Postmates’ new menu.

“I’m really disappointed that this video continues to center messes in the bedroom, the top/bottom binary, (thinking) gay men are the only people that bottom, and so many other cliche stigmas. (I’m) tired of it!” Hall says in a TikTok calling out Postmates.

Alex Hall isn’t the only person that had something to say about Postmates’ bottom-friendly menu. Not only do people think it’s strangely hilarious that Postmates created and released this menu in the first place, but some find the menu itself underwhelming. Both Los Angeles and New York menus only offer two options. The Los Angeles menu only offers coffee and pizza, both of which aren’t bottom-friendly and cause frequent bowel movements.
