Of course, the opposite is also true. Food that would cause a "cleaning out" would reduce weight and save fuel. Imagine if everyone shed a pound or two before takeoff. Of course, the fuel savings would have to be balanced against the cost of food and the cost of club restroom supplies and maintenance/cleaning, but this approach does have the potential to increase profits.
