anyone see the documentary "Super Size me" about McDonalds fast food ect.

I just finished watching it and it is deffinatly a program everyone should watch. The movie states that over 60% of americans are over weight the diabetes costs have doubled in children and it is not healthy to eat any fast food more than once a month while most americans eat it atleast once a week.

The program also has a great view on the way our children are being effected on fast food, candy, soda, processed food advertising and that children are no longer in PE classes more than once a week, while the public school cafeteria's are serving processed food with little nutritional value that come pre packaged, School Cafeteria's are no longer "cooking" anything they are just opening and reheating packages. THEN when a child goes to middle school or high school the children get to spen there lucnh money on Pepsi/ Coke products, Lays Patato Chips and little Debbies snacks.

The overweight epidemic is really getting out of control.
