1.The caloric difference between the better and poor choices at Burger King is 1,350 calories. 2. The difference between the poor choice and the better choice at Burger King of the total amount of fat grams is 83 grams. 3. The difference between the poor and better choice at Burger King of milligrams of sodium is 2,230 milligrams. 4. The difference between the poor choice and better choice at Burger King of saturated fat is 46.5 5. If fast food never existed in America today the United States would not be so overweight. 6. After analyzing this data i have concluded that fast food restaurants are not bad they have good choices and bad choices. What I mean by that is that people can choose the better choice at fast food restaurants over the poor choices and look to eat healthier. Many fast food restaurants target children with toys and clowns to make them eat their food which is making people in America grow up overweight.

Reflection

1. Mr.Spurlock goes to several McDonald's restaurants in search of posters and handouts with nutritional information and discovers they are difficult to read or not available at all.Why? Nutritional information is not available at McDonalds because they do not want their customers knowing whats in their food and how bad it is for them.

2. What changes did Morgan Spurlock go through during his McDonald-ization(physically, emotionally, and socially)?Give examples from the film. Morgan went through a lot of changes during his experiment. Some days he would feel like sick and others he would crave McDonalds and at the end of the day he would sit down and relax, through the experiment he became lazier.

4. According to the documentary, how does McDonald's lure young children? Would you conclude that McDonald's does cater to kids? Why? Give examples from the film. In the film, it states that McDonald's lures children in by having clowns, toys and playgrounds.

5. The film compares the current fast food revolution to the tobacco industry. One speaker posed the question, "Is fat the next tobacco?". What were they discussing and how did they relate it to fast food and the fast food industry? They mean that people are getting so addicted to fast food (and not a good additction) that they just keep coming back like they would to cigarettes.
