Super-Size Me!!!: Revelations from a Documentary on Fast-Food


Why are Americans so fat? Two words: fast food. What would happen if you ate nothing but fast food for an entire month? Filmmaker Morgan Spurlock does just that and embarks on the most perilous journey of his life. The rules? For 30 days he can't eat or drink anything that isn't on McDonald's menu; he must wolf three squares a day; he must consume everything on the menu at least once and supersize his meal if asked. Spurlock treks across the country interviewing a host of experts on fast food and an equal number of regular folk while chowing down at the Golden Arches. Spurlock's grueling drive-through diet spirals him into a physical and emotional metamorphosis that will make you think twice about picking up another Big Mac.
Summary written by Sujit R. Varma retrieved October 12, 2005 from imdb.com.

Director Morgan Spurlock seeks to expose one of the "biggest health epidemics" America currently is facing, obesity. Spurlock is prompted to conduct the study based on a news report of two young ladies seeking to sue McDonald's for "making" them obese. I would like to know your opinion. Are Americans eating too much fast food nowadays? Is obesity really a health epidemic? Should people be denied certain types of health insurance because of their weight? Also, would you consider viewing the documentary Super-Size Me to see the hurtful health effects of eating fast food three meals a day for a month? Please as always keep your responses clean from profanity and hurtful language.
