Where did this thing come from? Along with the stereotype of girls drinking coffee and eating nothing else? And the “almond mom” thing? Do women not eat? What’s the history of this cultural thingy?

‘Girl dinner’ isn’t so much about saying women don’t eat, or encouraging them not to, it’s a lighthearted take on women throwing together a bunch of random food items that they actually want to eat, rather than putting effort into cooking a homemade dinner. The nutritional value is still there, it’s just not a meal in the traditional sense.
The ‘almond mom’ thing comes from the women who came of age during the ‘heroin chic’ era of the 80s/90s, and now have their own children whom they push their disordered eating habits onto (particularly daughters). Almond comes from the stereotype of them claiming they’re full after eating something very small, for example a handful of almonds.
