That film is long overdue, and people should be educated. Unfortunately, there appear to be those who exist on a steady diet of "fast food". Once in a while is alright I suppose, but every day has got to have negative consequences. [xx(]

Me as well actually (baring the only very occasional lapse). But would still consider watching the documentary! A long overdue finger pointed at the need for personal responsibility in the care of ones long term health, and the relationship with dietary education and is the name of the game here is it not?

Cheers,

I can't wait to see that movie!!
I'm sure it'll be hilarious to watch McDonalds on the defense again, Thats one corporation that seems to be dying a slow and painful death. http://www.theage.com.au/articles/2004/06/13/1087065034025.html?oneclick=true

Theres another movie out called "McLibel", its about the court case in the UK between McDonalds and a couple of activists who were handing out flyers highlighting all the things wrong with McDonalds. Though McD's won the case, it drew so much negative publicity to them that I think they would have regreted ever bringing it to court in the first place.

Well it sounds interesting, but what is it beyond that? Everyone knows that most of McDonald's menu is not that healthy. I doubt most people eat it every day, especially for every meal. Too much of anything is not good for you. Too much water can kill you, especially if inhaled. [:P]

things like this help the facts about fast food hit home.  yes, everybody "knows" that fast food is bad for you, but that doesn't mean that they think about it- especially when munching on some fries.

He says Spurlock ate as much McDonalds food in 30 days as nutritionists say should be eaten in eight years.

Thats about 1 mcdonalds meal per month. Mcdonalds wants you to eat more, obviously.
