Has anyone seen Supersize Me yet?
I saw it today. I thought it was pretty good, but very disgusting.
What were your thoughts?

Nah, I haven't seen it, but I am looking forward to it. I am gunna go and get a Large BigMac meal and then head down to the cinema with it all, and...
EAT IT!!!
It's supposed to be sort of like the Bowling for Columbine of fast foods. I really enjoyed that movie. It was amazing.

I really don't care if something I eat isn't good for me. Most of the time I eat things in moderation anyway, so I say if it tastes good, eat it. We all have to die someday, and personally, I'd rather trade one year of my life to enjoy tasty food rather than eat oats and bran and all that stuff and live to 76 instead of 75. :p
Of course, the doco is the result of eating Macca's for a month straight, people who do that deserve to have a liver's like patte' :p
Will be an interesting watch, but I'm yet to see it.

Not yet. Sounds good.

For people that don't know:
The movie is about a person who eats McDonalds and only McDonalds for 1 month. If they ask him if he wants a "supersize" he has to say yes.
It's amazing what that kind of food can do to you

I'm really looking forward to seeing it. Apparently after he was done filming and went back to normal food again, he had a really hard time fighting the cravings for more Maccas :eek:

The immense weight problems in Australia is starting to get really scary. Nowadays, it's really common to have overweight or anorexic/bullimic people. There just doesn't seem to be anything in between the two now. :(

Why can't I "supersize" my Greater Union movie? :D
Hmm, it gives new meaning to the phrase/expression,
"Don't bust your gut."

Oh sweet Jesus, help America.
I saw this today, and i knew from all the talk surrounding it that it was going to be gross. But i had no idea! I'd had KFC for lunch beforehand -- and afterwards i felt like going to the bathroom to vomit it up! I felt dirty! :eek:
I was in disbelief at the size of American meals. The Supersize drink was a bucket! Just smaller than a 2 litre bottle of soft drink. And i couldn't believe that the salads were just as bad as the burgers. I'm never eating that filth again! Well... at least not until i'm hungover. ;)
