The difference between my healthier meal and the poor meal in McDonalds is very different. For example the difference between how much calorie is in the bad choice is about 2,350 calories and in the good choice it’s about 560. So that means the difference is about 1,760 calories. The bad choice has about 100g of fat and the good choice has about 30, so the difference is about 70g of fat. In McDonalds they have a lot of salt in their food, like French fries. In my menu of the poor choice is about 1950, but in my good choice it’s about 1,100. If you look at it the good and bad choices are both really bad for people and shouldn’t really be eaten. The difference in saturated fat in the poor choice is 35g different from the good choice. If fast food never existed in the U.S.A there would be less over weighted people and the sports would change because if there were more athletic people then sports would be more competitive. I think fast food should stop being sold to people because they will end up with all sorts of diseases and cancers. Also it’s not good for their hearts and lungs. Also it will make a difference in sports because if people were healthier they will be more athletic to play sports, so there will be a huge gain in sports.

Mr.Spurlock goes to several McDonald’s restaurants in search of posters and handouts with nutritional information and discover they are difficult to read or not available at all. Why? Some McDonalds didn’t even have them and some McDonalds had to go to the basement to get theirs. Probably the owner of McDonald’s doesn’t want people to see what their eating and doing to their selves. Also some McDonalds put stuff over to cover the nutrition sheets.

What changes did Morgan Spurlock go through during his McDonald-ization (physically, emotionally and socially)? Give examples from the film. He started to get more addictive to the McDonalds food that he was eating. Also he was feeling dizzy and kept throwing up. Whenever he would eat the McDonalds food he was starting to get hyper and excited then just crash.

According to the documentary, how does McDonalds lure young children? Would you conclude that McDonald’s does cater to kids? Why? Give examples from the film. McDonalds lure the children’s by putting playgrounds in McDonalds or outside of it. Also they put cartoons on TV, so they could ask their parents if they could go to McDonalds. I think that McDonalds does cater kids because their showing on TV what good stuff is at McDonalds like the playground and toys they give you if you get the kids meal.

The film discussed portion sizes and serving sizes. What are sensible portions verses supersize portions? How have portion sizes changed over the years? The sensible portions were about 12 to 16 ounces in 1960’s now they’re about 64 ounces. So the supersize portions are probably 3 or 4 times bigger than that. So portion sizes have changed over the years, mainly they have changed into the supersize size back in the days.
