Supersize Me

          In the documentary, "Supersize Me", Morgan Spurlock addresses the problem of obesity caused by fast food intake. the lawsuits that went against fast food resturaunts weren't taken seriously by judges, so Spurlock decided to take on the challenege of eating nothing but McDonald's for a whole month. He documents himself eating McDonald's Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner to give his audience a vivid account of the negative effects of eating too much fast fast food. He believed that since McDonalds is such a booming business, and the advertisements are so popular that people become blindsided when they have to make the choice between junk food, and something nutritious.
          He goes to different schools to see what type of food is served, and asks different people on the street their opinion of fast food to make his message clear that many Americans go out to eat on the regular basis, and without enough information advertised about the nutrition facts, we are vulnerable to bad health.
