Especially on later levels you don't have the time to move your eyes all over the screen to aim for the buttons, click it and move your eye back to the front of the conveyor belt.

Also, you are here to pig out, so avoid those fruits and vegetables, or else you may find yourself in a thinner, bad spot. How fat can you get?
