What a Load of Crap..

Ok I just watched 2 more documentaries. I dont usually watch documentaries but lately on Netflix I decided to scan the documentary isle. I can say there are a few worth watching. Why do I not like watching documentaries? They are usually one sided. The writer usually has one side of a story and he or she is basically pushing what they believe in. So that brings to my point.

First documentary today was "supersize me" by Morgan Spurlock. The only thing I agree with this documnetary is fast food joints are not a healthy choice to eat. However, I can not say burn them down because I occasionally enjoy an angus burger and fries. The only difference is I dont make the fast food joints the staple of my food intake. That is the other thing, are these fast food joints making us fat. No we choose to eat at these places.

So to sit their with your fancy lawyers and say Mcdonalds is making America fat is really a bold face lie. If you say America is making America fat than I could agree with that. Then to say I ate Mcdonalds for a whole month for all three meals and gained weight, well I could also say I ate a loaf of bread a day and a gallon of soda and gained weight.

Also I find it cheaper to buy a bag of brown rice and a bag of frozen vegetables then to go out and buy one meal at McDonalds. So to really try and push McDonalds is catering to poor families. Come on give me a break.

So my complaint about this movie is it is not the Fast food joints that is making people fat, it is people making themself fat. Really why cant we sue the alcohol manufacturers for all the drunk drivers. We cant, because the Alcohol companies are not forcing the drinkers to drink.

So I followed "Supersize me" with another Documentary called "Fat Head" by Tom Naughton. Another documentary that is full of conspiracies. How ever he makes one thing clear. Basically Supersize Me was ridiculous, and those big wig lawyers are just trying to sue and get money.

I did like this documentary becuase the main point in it was, people are going to eat what people want to eat, regardless.

So no matter which film you watch are agree with, remember this, The choices you make at the table are your choices. No one is forcing you to pick fried chicken over a broiled fish. All your choices are your choices. We have the right to choose what we want to eat.

So when you look in the mirror and you are not happy with all the excess baggage, or your kids are putting on extra weight, dont blame the fast food industries blame yourself.
