To me, this movie is like, a guy taking a kick in the nuts daily, over a week/month/3 months...seeing the negative effects on his fertility, then blaming the brand of shoes on the guy kicking him.
I haven't cared to see the film, I know this stuff already - if you don't know this stuff already, watching the film won't really make that much of a difference to you either IMO, because evidently you'd absorb fat better than information.

I seldom eat McDs myself, but like I said, $50 and a free lunch, I'm good with.
Ha, 4 of those burgers though, I'm about gonna smash the toilet bowl later on...
I watched it out of curiosity. The reason he targeted Mcdonalds, well there were a few. They are about the biggest fast food chain there is (and have been around the longest), plus before the movie, damn near every time you ordered soemthing there, they asked if you wanted to super size it. in the movie, if he is asked that, he HAS to.

After the movie came out, a lot of the individual franchises stopped offering meal sizes, settling on just medium because of the bad press it generated.

I can't even remember if we ever had the option to Supersize in England. It's always been Childrens, small, medium or large. And our large meals are somewhere between the American medium and large.

Also remember that pushed his body, forcing himself to finish every meal even when he was full. Where a sensible person would throw the remainder of the food out he didn't...

Cake is fine in moderation too but if you eat nothing but cake you will be a fat ass with some major problems, especially if you force yourself to finish half a cake in each sitting. That movie was a sensationalistic waste of film in my opinion. I hope Phal isn't forced to eat too much. As far as the food not breaking down naturally, in your body it's digested using acid, it doesn't sit in your stomach forever and it certainly isn't passed out in whole patty form. You want to see something real scary take a look at the way your body breaks down artificial sweeteners.
