Super Size Me

Super Size Me is one of the craziest documentaries ever. It seems like our nation consumes fast food like there is no tomorrow.
This documentary is about Morgan Spurlock and how he ate McDonalds for a whole month. He went to three different doctors and none of them were worried about his health. Before this experiment was even close to being over, they were floored by what they saw. His cholesterol, blood pressure, and everything were out of system. They begged him to stop eating McDonalds because it was life threatening, but he kept on eating.
Super Size Me was thoroughly disgusting, but it was neat to hear about the lawsuits and what McDonalds called the people who ate their food. People who ate their food frequently we called “heavy users” and people who ate their food a few times a week were called “super heavy users.”
Super Size Me was a disturbing documentary and it did change how I view fast food restaurants. Even though many things go on behind the scenes at these fast food restaurants, I still like a McDonalds bacon egg and cheese biscuit before my volleyball tournaments on the weekend. I understand that fast food is pretty much the only option for some people because it is cheap and can keep you full for a long time, but I don’t think McDonalds should be eaten every day. I do think it is okay to eat fast food occasionally. As long as you take care of your body; work out and eat healthy food most of the time, a little McDonalds won’t hurt you every now and then.
