Pay as you weigh

A buffet restaurant in China’s prosperous Guangzhou province recently introduced a new type of charging standard, reports the China Daily.

The restaurant requires children who are shorter than 140 centimetres to pay according to their weight. For example, a child who weighs 25 kilograms will be asked to pay 25 Yuan (US $3) while one who weighs 30 kilograms pay 30 Yuan. The provision has become popular with parents, especially of thinner children who now pay less than they otherwise would.
