If you haven't read "Fast Food Nation" I recommend it. That book will change your opinion FOREVER about fast food. I don't fuck with it either. I heard about that documentary though, I heard the guy almost died after eating that shit for like 3 weeks....I also heard doctors told him that he could die.....

mmmm, i'm hungry....how about a big mac.....lmao.....fucking sick...

What's worse is the irresponsible fat fucks who sue the fast food restaurants for "causing" their obesity. That's like getting a tattoo then suing the place for assault with a sharp object.

^agreed.
I want to pitch the idea so I can make a cool new documentary called "Charge It!" In which I will buy extremely expensive novelties, automobiles, and high class escorts. That'll show those Credit Card Companies!

What does that book say in it? Plus, you wont die if you eat at Mcdonalds once a week, this man ate at Mcdonalds every day, and every meal, that's why he got so fucked up, but if you eat alittle and eat healthy on the side you'll be ok.

^^^

the book covers everything from the personal lives of the founders of mc donalds, wendys etc. to the environment of the factories the meat is butchered in to the way it affects the community and a lot more. i'll probably read it again.

i think you'd still fuck yourself up pretty bad eating it once a week every week. slowly but eventually you'll see the effects.

i just saw the movie today. it was really good. check it out if you get the chance.

I just ate McDonald's tonight. Man, did it taste delicious. I don't care what methods they use to make the food because I have never been sick as a result of any fast food. I don't worry about eating it because I only eat fast food about twice a month and work out regularly. The people that sue are the irresponsible ones who have never exercised a day in their life and want everything done for them, including having their food fixed for them. Say what you want about McDonald's or any other fast food place, but I will eat it until the day I get sick from it.

i dunno, i don't like mcdon's cuz i grew up down the street from one.. stgill like breakfast there sometimes. but we don't even have one in my tgown its so small...i weighed less when i was by fast food cuz i didn't like it that much..now tho, i cook all the time and i cook shit just the way i like it and its just me and my son so we always have plenty, and i exercise every damn day-like really- and i weigh more than i ever have in my life....i'm prolly healthier because i cook good food but man...if i was poor and urban again i'd prolly be less healthy but less chunky too...

My gramps died of a heart attack...skinny and healthy,

He had high cholesterol...something fatty ass foods like McD's contribute to.

Of course if you eat right and exercise...you can handle some McDonald's every now and then.

Slaves did not live to be 120 years old. Go read some history. Most of them were dead before 40 because they were whipped so much that there was no use for them.

This is true.

The oldest known man of all time was a Asian man, I believe Chinese, who lived to 120. African slaves had the life span between 35-45.

this guy ate mickey ds for breakfast lunch and dinner...i dont see anything wrong with junk food restaurants if you go there once a month or so, the ppl that should really be paying attention to the movie are the ones that eat out all the time, even in the sit down restaurnats were they serve enough meal for a family on one plate...only junk food that makes me sick afterwards is the disgusting crap they call food at taco bell and jack in the box...you ever buy a meal at jack in the box?...food is so greasy it seems the whole bag was put in the deep fry.

Funny how the same people bitching about fast food like to drink and smoke weed & cigarettes all the time. Aint that some shit.
lol, good point. But when it comes to food people have a choice in the matter. You can get good tasting food thats good for your body just as conveniently as you can get greasy, fattening food from a drive thru. But there's no healthy way to get high or drunk...you either fuck up your health or stay sober.

Well, my problem isn't with people getting fat from McDonalds, common sense will tell you you're going to get fat eating fast food everyday, my problem is when they lie about their food and it's contents. A good example is when they put beef fat in their fries and didn't tell anyone. Many people, such as vegetarians and Hindu's, thought they were eating beef-free products.

McDonalds often lies about the contexts of their foods and what they don't make clear is a diet high in fat, sugar, animal products and salt (sodium), and low in fibre, vitamins and minerals is linked with cancers of the breast and bowel, and heart disease.

Most people don’t know that their "fresh lettuce leaf” is treated with twelve different chemicals just to keep it the right color and the right crispness for the right length of time. You don’t read that on the Nutrition Guide, now do you?

Of course there are other problems with McDonalds besides food. McDonald's is directly involved in economic imperialism; they own Millions of acres of the best farmland in very poor countries, while the people of these countries are starving and dieing. Then of course you have McDonalds contributing hugely to the destruction of rainforests. McDonald's and Burger King are two of the many US corporations using lethal poisons to destroy vast areas of Central American rainforest to create pastures for cattle. They say it takes 800 square miles of forest just to keep them supplied with paper for one year. There are many other things as well. I’m going to see the video soon…

Tadou, you're a fucking idiot. Why don't you try watching the film before bashing it?
