So, I watched the Sundance award-winning documentary called "Super Size Me." If you haven't heard about it, the premise is that a guy who normally doesn't eat fast food decides that he's going to eat nothing but McDonald's for 30 days. Every meal. Every snack. Every drink. Everything.
But it isn't really about that. It's about Americans and our habits.
The guy gains weight. Gets mood swings. Gets sick. His cholesterol shoots through the roof. He ponders liver damage. Heart palpitations. It really wrecked his system and the doctors and nutritionists keeping an eye on him begged him to quit about two weeks into it.
And, you don't want to know about the McDonald "fry experiment" he conducted on the DVD.
Suffice to say, if you want a well done movie with a few laughs but will make you want to re-evaluate what you put in your body (they discuss more than McDonald's), watch Super Size Me. Very good flick.
