>>I don't think it's mant to poke fun at larger people, just incredibly
greedy, uncaring, unsharing people, like the Dursleys<<

I think you're right. It helps to illustrate the notion that the Durseleys
have always been the "haves" in the household while Harry has always been
the lone "have not". Dudley has all the new clothes, toys, and food and
Harry is left with what is leftover or handed down, albeit grudgingly .
