Supersize Me
Have anyone of you watch tt documentary? I couldn't quite remember why I didn't watch tt, it's either I was too caught up with assgns (which is probably not it) or I can't find anyone who's interested.
Supersize Me was launched admist the tensions and claims by Americans or perhaps even ppl around the world about McDonald's being unhealthy. Or putting it in a blunt manner: potentially killing.
I can't help but wonder how ppl can point the finger at the most successful fast-food chain for lack of social reponsibility when the choice to buy & consume McDonald's (including the supersize ones) are of their own. Shouldn't then the ppl blame themselves for submitting to the temptations of McDonald's? After all, America is a country of free-will.
Okay, probably not.
In the beginning, the docu was nothing but interesting. Even the front cover attracted my attention. But half-way through, it gets a bit mundane. In fact, it reached to a point where I was screeching with frustration while thinking, "For goodness sake, jst tell me how many died?"
Contrary to Brandon's (the friend who borrowed me this CD) prediction tt I probably don't wanna eat McD's for the rest of my life, I felt tt extreme crave for french fries & nuggets, which was satisfied a few days later.
McDonalization have revealed tt America is indeed a land of opportunities........................................ to grow fat.
And jst for the record, no one died from eating McDonald's. Extreme consumption will result in obesity and eventually lead to death. (Cupcake, take note!!) *grin*
