In case you haven't seen this yet, the full documentary is now available on YouTube>
Quote: Filmmaker Morgan Spurlock makes himself a test subject in this documentary about the commercial food industry. Rigorously eating a diet of McDonald's fast food three times a day for a month straight, Spurlock is out to prove the physical and mental effects of consuming fast food. Spurlock also provides a look at the food culture in America through its schools, corporations, and politics as seen through the eyes of both ordinary citizens and health advocates.

It is amazing how big kids are. The other day I played B ball at the park and there was some teenagers there that were like huge. Like the width of the door to my house. I don't know how they move.
At my age it's a battle to try and lose that extra bit of weight that last bit, and it seems my body is always trying to get fatter. I reckon most folks these days just let it go and eat whatever they want. It's no wonder folks in their 30's are huge these days when they don't take measures to fight back the weight.
That one guy is right, it's not right to heckle smokers and then let it go for fat people. Not that you should make fun of them, but still you even insinuate somebody might ought to eat a little less and they will go ballistic.
Gee, I'm listening to this while I work, and I'm starting to get hungry.
Do they still advertise with Ronald? I don't think I've seen him lately.
You know toward the end when the doc said you are going to die if you don't stop eating McDonalds food. I'd stop.
Man, I remember back in the 80's when everybody seemed crazy about health. __________________

I was just reading and one of the culprits a lot of people say and was mentioned on this video is high fructose corn syrup. I read on wiki that it was in 1985 coke first switched to it from regular sugar. Hmm, I told you people were skinnier in the 80's. __________________
