"What can I do? She still won't eat!"

The Spanish Ministry of Health plans to invite over 8,000 normal women to take part in a project that will ensure that clothing shop mannequins will reflect reality. The woman will be subjected to body scans which will then be analysed to determine how dummies should be modified to reflect the average woman.

I am a bit worried though. They can't stuff the dummies full of food, they just vomit it all up, so are they just going to throw the old ones away. Are mannequins recyclable? If so, which bin do I put them in?
