Last night i was watching this documentry "Supersize Me"....Documentary filmmaker Morgan Spurlock makes himself a test subject of this documentary about the commercial food industry... He look into the Billion dollar advertising and marketing budget of McDonald and Coca Cola versus the budget from the government to promote healthy food...
To test the effects of such billion dollars advertising.. He put a test on a few children.. he show them a photo of George Washington and Jesus, but non of the kids knows who they are.. Then he show them photo of Ronald McDonald.. and every kids knows..
He eat a diet of McDonald's fast food, three times a day for a month straight. After one week of eating McDonald his Cholesterol level shot up (really scary)... Spurlock is out to prove the physical and mental effects of consuming fast food. While doing this, Spurlock also provides a look at the food culture in America through it's schools, corporations, and politics as seen through the eyes of regular people and health advocates.
"Super Size Me" is a movie that sheds a new light on what has become one of our nation's biggest health problems: obesity. You will definitely avoid fast food, ready to cook food and soft drinks...
And after watching it.. I will cut down my intake of commercial industrial junk food... especially McDonald and Coca Cola..
