I thought the film Supersize Me had a very deep meaning to it and I hope whoever watches it can understand its meaning as well. If I had to describe this film to a friend, I would tell them that it’s definitely worth watching. Just about everybody across the country and even around the world eats or has eaten fast food at some point in their life. North America especially is viewed by other countries as being obese and overweight, maybe because we have so many fast food joints spread out all over the place. When I think of the words “fast food” that’s exactly what I picture, food being prepped and made rather quickly. Many people eat fast food because it’s quick, cheap, easy, and convenient. I myself will eat fast food, McDonald’s in particular, at least a few times a month. But many of us don’t realize just how damaging these food products can be to our bodies. McDonald’s food is filled with large amounts of sugar and fat. In the documentary, Morgan eats nothing but McDonald’s for thirty days straight for breakfast, lunch and dinner and by the end of his journey, he gains about twenty-five pounds as well as takes in thirty pounds of sugar, equaling a pound of sugar a day. In order to motivate a friend to watch this film, I would briefly tell them some of the side effects Morgan encounters along the way. Hearing about the side effects is completely different compared to actually watching and witnessing Morgan’s body change throughout the film. I believe that more people should be aware of the dangers that McDonald’s food products hold. As I mentioned before, their products are quick, cheap and they taste good, but are they really worth risking our health over? In order to take action and address the problems explored in Supersize Me, I would recommend more people to watch this film and really take in what McDonald’s food is doing to our bodies. In just thirty days, Morgan has eaten as much McDonald’s as most nutritionists say you’re supposed to eat in eight years. The sad part is, many people across the country eat McDonald’s way more often than the average person should. At the end of the film, Morgan suffers from severe liver damage and his cholesterol sky rockets. If more people were aware of just how damaging this food is, I believe fewer and fewer people would continue to eat here.
