I saw its 2 days ago and yesterday, best movie ever made
 , the problem is, iit made people aware of the situation but there not gonna do anyhting about it. First time I watched it, it was with my family, as soon as it was over my brother went o god that's disgusting then went and ordered KFC  but he's paying for it, he's getting pretty big.The second time I watched it, it was with my friends, and when they started to show the fat people my firend goes "O god that's nasty! , why can't they just show the hot people?" I turned to him and said "Umm your on your way to getting that big" He's 130 lbs so he thinks he's "alright" but he can't even bench 20lbs, he's ALL fat, we constantly make fun of him, because he's always saying he's gonna start lifting weights and stuff. So after the movie what does he do? He started eating a huge bag of chips...people just disgust me, if a mvoie like that isn't making them change their ways, then what will? |

What's the point of this movie though? If you eat only at McDonalds for a month straight then you will get fat and almost die? Don't eat only at McDonalds for a fuqing month straight then! Jesus..

I saw it at the movies a while back and agree it was a great film.
Have any of your read Fast Food Nation by Eric Schlosser? That's enough to put you off fast food for life. |

I read that book. You must be very squimish because I still find BK & McD food tasty.
And I was always aware that there was no meat in that patty. |

I worked at BK when I was 15 and I was there for a few years, long enough to see what kind of folks frequent the place. It was incredible that even as I was not into fitness then, I was still disgusted that some people ate that for breakfast, lunch and even dinner several-every day of the week

the main point of this movie is to point out the fact that fast food and obesity in America is a serious problem, rent it you will not be disappointed. he even goes to public schools to point out the garbage that are kids are fed everyday, I was already aware of this as I have a son that is now in 7th grade.

School lunches... ahhhh I can remember them as if it was yesterday. They are soooo bad for kids. Even the items that attempt to look like food are packed with sodium and preservatives I'm sure. Best thing is for kids to bring their own lunch. They serve healthier food in jail to the inmates than the youngsters that are in their prime for growth. It's sad. All the teachings of 3 meals a day and that god awful bs food pyramid.

I liked the movie, but it left me with a huge McD's craving.
The lions sing and the hills take flight.
The moon by day, and the sun by night. Blind woman, deaf man, jackdaw fool. Let the Lord of Chaos rule. |

I bought a copy and I lend it out to clients - it is definitely a motivator for them to not eat junk food anymore. Fast Food Nation is also an excellent book!
Today I can do what others will not so that tomorrow I will do what others cannot.
The difference between winners and losers is that winners do things that losers don't want to do. |
