A very well made documentary about the dangers of fast food - in specific McDonalds. Its pretty funny, and scary at the same time, and it definitly affected me and I now actively try to control how much fast food I eat. If you guys havent seen this yet, I highly recommend you guys do.

not sure where you can get/watch this movie, as I got it off the school network.

Yeah, it really amazed me. McDonalds truely is the devil. Salt, sugar and fat are the only things that make up that garbage. I spent three years working in that dump, and I saw things that turned me off that food forever.

Thre real eyeopener is the psychological aspect fo the food. If I do eat McD's, I really do feel better for about thirty minutes, and then I hit a real wall.

I know there was a topic earlier about this movie, but it really is something that anyone that eats that food should eat.

If you ask me, I'd say food that people eat in asia and such are the healthiest compared to western MCDONALDS (OHH GOD, STOP SAYING IT! T_T) and crap.

remember the guy who ate a lot of big macs, yet he manages to maintain his cholesterol. perhaps big macs are an acceptably healthy food?

I went to mcdonald today and enjoyed my food

Had those new fried shrimps, cost a lot and doesnt feed a man.
Well the problem with the fast food is the food you eat before and after it, and/or the "get a lot more product, for just a little more money" system. It's not the fact that its fast food that makes it bad, but the fact that its cheap food. And to make cheap food good, you add salt and grease :D.

Good movie, but it's nothing really new. McDonald's is bad for you. Everyone knows that.

Businesses cater to demand, and it's not like McDonald's is any worse for you than Wendy's, Burger King, Carl's Junior, or Jack in the Box. If people didn't buy their food, they wouldn't sell it. It's the same as the tobacco companies: you can harp on them all you want, but they're just satisfying a demand. And if they don't, someone else will.

But yeah, check out the movie. It's entertaining, and the diet's impact on his liver is pretty astounding.
