Super Size Me 2 is on Amazon Prime.

Watch it to understand why healthy fast food is not possible. (Not if the place serving it wants to be successful.)

I’d rather eat a stinky turd from a BK bathroom mate. I’ll pass.

That guy was a moron.

He ate a Big Mac meal and threw up. I'd slam those down as a 5'11" 160lbs 16 year old.

What's the point of Supersize Me 2? I thought he covered the fast food issue in the first movie.

After that movie, fast food restaurants started to try to market themselves as making their menus healthier, or offering healthier options. The point of Super Size Me 2 was to expose how this is all marketing BS and fast food restaurants are exactly the same. So it's mostly about exposing the marketing, and what really goes on in the production and marketing of fast food. Obviously he can't get actual companies to talk to him about this, so he actually opened his own chicken restaurant and showed everything that goes into buying and raising your own chickens and marketing the food. There's a thing about how all chicken sold in the USA is the product of 5 large corporations (deemed "big chicken"), and the actual people who farm for them are kept from making a lot of profit by being forced by the big 5 to constantly "upgrade" their facilities and needlessly spend money, as well as how the farmers are forced to compete against each other, with the "winners" being determined by the big 5. One farmer who obviously is sick of this BS is the one who worked with him for this movie, and they showed about how during the production of the movie he was put into last place.

The movie was produced in 2016, the restaurant that was opened only was open for 4 days, YouTube Red bought the distribution rights, then #metoo happened and Morgan Spurlock apparently admitted to rape, so this movie got shelved for 4 years.

Anyway, the movie / documentary is not bad. I thought it was eye opening. They didn't show chickens being slaughtered, but they showed how "broiler" chickens grow so big so fast that some percentage of them die from heart attacks before they are slaughtered, so they show that. I thought it was interesting when the farmer says how if they didn't die of heart attacks it would indicate a problem because they aren't growing fast enough, so having some chickens die of heart attacks before slaughter is something they want to see.

This case of an intraperitoneal zucchini is unusual, and does raise questions as to how hard one has to push a blunt vegetable to perforate the rectum.

My holy grail is cheap AND healthy fast food or microwave dinners. Considering the economies of scale of buying and cooking in bulk vs buying individual ingredients and cooking for yourself I would hope such a thing was feasible, but alas.

I know this is like hella old bit Michael Angelo frozen meals are amazingly high quality and very cheap for what they are (brands of less quality often cost twice as much). Give em a go.

The eggplant parm is better than any eggplant parm I've had including scratchmade.
