If you have yet to see This movie, go watch it right now. Watching this in my college English class was the second time I have seen this movie. This guy was either very smart, or very foolish. H risked his life to show America, no the World, what we are doing to ourselves by eating this junk every day of our lives. Okay so I'm a pretty skinny kid, close to being a skeleton. The sad thing is, that right after watching this movie I went and got some McDonalds. Before that I hadn't eaten the stuff for a couple months. I think that just like any food, Fast food is okay in moderation. It's okay to indulge in it every once in a while, but any more than that and you are risking your health. So i drive up to Mickey D's, found a parking spot, and headed on in. [I don't like drive throughs for some reason.] Looking at the Menu I realized that Morgan Spurlock was a genius. Like he said in his movie, McDonalds no longer offered the Supersize portions after his movie. Also, when I ordered my BigMac, the Cashier didn't ask me if I wanted to make it a large size. I don't know if she was being Lazy, or if she wasn't allowed to ask anymore, but it was a nice change.
Since then I have only made one other visit to the Golden Arches and that is because my Dad [who doesn't need to be eating fast food] wanted to go there after we visited the junkyard. Since watching Supersize me for the first time back in 10th Grade P.E. I have really cut back on the fast food. Every once in a while I like to indulge myself, just like anyone else, but for the most part I like to eat home made stuff. Ever try making your own fast food at home? It's a lot healthier and pretty fun at the same time.
