Super Size This

I finally got around to watching the documentary "Super Size Me" about a guy eating nothing but McDonalds for a month straight. Most people I know rushed to see this when it was in the theatres. The movie wasn't really a shocker. It's not like he was going to get skinnier from eating only McDonalds for a month. Or suddenly grow massive calf muscles.

I was a little disappointed because I expected him to get really fat really quickly and that just didn't happen. He did end up gaining 25 lbs in a month and developing severe liver problems. Some of the data that was mentioned in the movie probably wasn't as big of a deal as they made it out to be. There is a guy in the movie that has eaten over 10,000 Big Macs in his lifetime. That is a lot of special sauce.

It was a worthy cause, but this newfound information still won't change my eating habits. I do like eating healthy but I also enjoy being a dirt bag and narfing on Mickey D's every now and then. Fortunately I don't eat there enough for it to cause liver damage or McDonald's body odor. I wouldn't touch another McNugget again. But an apple pie never hurt anybody.
