Hi,my name is Lesley Rivera I just completed my intership at healthy Living and I have been curremtly hired by this company for their Food Education Department. My first assignment is to express how i felt about the movie "Supersize Me". I had no clue thast all this fast food can make you gain SO MUCH weight in a matter of 30 days. == = Welcome to Healthy Living = = ﻿ Analysis: = There is a major calorie difference between the healthier meal option and poor meal option which is 2030 calories. In the better meal choice meal fat grams is 25 grams to the poor choice which is 94 grams for a difference of 69 grams. Sodium had a difference of 2400(mg) with better choice being 690, and poor hoices being 3090(mg). Better choices sugar(g) had 3.5(g) total, and poor choice being 44(g), with a difference of 40.5(g). If fast food never existed there would be less obess people, and more healthy people. This would lead to less problems. After analyzing this form of data fast food is not the best food choice you could make, this is a problem becuase people are addicted to it because it fast, tastes good, and most of the time little cost. In McDonalds there are mostly unhealthy choices, but you can also make healthier choices. = //** Reflection: **// = Supersize portions have gone out of control. Theres no need to have all of a beverage in the biggest size possible. The sizes are small,medium,large, and supersize. Over the years the sizes has just gotten bigger and the mediuml was consider small, the large was considered large and then we get up to the supersize. McDonalds lures children in a very successful way. One way they lure them is having " Ronald McDonald" the clown to entertain them and have fun with them. Another is giving children toys when they order a happy mean, this would want them to keep buying the happy meals and collecting the toys. I do agree that McDonalds does cater to kids because there always around them and interacting with them.They related this to tabacco becuase, fast food is becoming so addicting and everyone wants to have it. Just like tabacco, its very addicting and hard to let go off and quit. There are people would want to stop this fast food industry and make more healthy fast foods. In most fast food restaurants they are not going to show their costumers the nutritional information. This is because, not everything they sell to the public is healthy. Most of the food is bad for you. The only thing they will tell and show their costumers is what they are selling and how good it is for you, not how healthy or unhealthy it is for you.
