Supersize Me:
Supersize Me is a great documentary. It is very informative and it uncovers the fast food industry's conspiracy, that it's not about the people they serve, but it's about the money we give them. They manufacture and process and process foods so that we HAVE to have more. ''You just cant eat one chip'' isn't very good marketing - they really do put stuff in the food we eat such as meat to make it more addictive. The food industry in general is just another self seeking money making idea. The film will hopefully help change the way the fast food thinks and how it operates. This will then expose the conspiracy. if nothing else, Supersize Me will inspire you to eat correctly. Or at least you will be motivated to eat better. The film is abit slow at times, considering the content. I would recommend this to anyone. As a result of watching the film it makes you not want to pick up a burger again. Anyone who cares about what is going on in the world should watch the documentary. I highly recommend this if you want to know what really goes on in the fast food retailers.
