    What does McDonald’s care about is not customers, but the stockholders. All they want is to make money. If you want to maintain a healthy body, do not eat McDonald’s junk food. Eat more vegetables. Maybe to become a vegetarian is not a bad choice, just like the hero’s wife in this movie.

  • Lucky PG 4

    In my view, it is our responsibility to keep ourselves fit. We are now adult and we can distinguish the food from healthy and unhealthy. We should know the bad effect of obesity. It can result in diabetes , fatty liver and so on. If we know about it, we will develop a healthy diet. But I do maintain the McDonald do have responsibility to inform to the customer that if you eat a lot, it will lead to obesity. When it comes to children, the parents are the person should be blamed. Because parents have money . If they don’t allow their children to eat junk food. The children have no choice. One of my best friend told me that if she have child ,she never allow them to eat the junk food. Certainly she never eat fast food. As the government , I believe they can guide the public to have a healthy diet and ask the corporate to change menu accord with our tradition diet.

    This is a great documentary, very informative, which I enjoyed! I find it interesting that one can sue a company like McDonalds for “selling food that is not good for people”, previously. That is ridiculous!
    Everyone should take personal responsibility for what they eat! Neither McDonalds nor any other fast food restaurants are forcing consumers to buy their food. I think one should eat foods that suit one’s lifestyle. Of course one has to balance it with some vegetables and fruits and eat healthy portions according to one’s size.
    I was a bit concern about what I have seen in this documentary and have concluded that fast food is not a healthy choice for me even if it is eaten for only once a month. I thank God I am thin but I don’t want to feed my body with such foods in the future.

    You are what you eat.You can’t have your cake and eat it too.Sometimes we have to make a choice between health and delicious food.
    As to children,they are too young to understand this.So,marketing and advertising directly to them should be banned immediately.

  • Joan PG 3

    Even you like something very much,you still can’t eat it too much!That is what I get from this movie.Fastfood like McDonald and KFC create a convenient envirment for all of us.We should enjoy the convenience they give us ,but we must remember not to eat it as meals every day!

  • Jack PG4

    I can’t agree it is wise to sacrifice the health of our own for proving something which is right or wrong.In this movie,the man has done such things, I feel puzzled during the whole film because of his unusual behavior.I also think he is a little selfish.When he decided to do the experiment,he didn’t consider other people,such as his girlfriend.All the people worried about him and his health.But he just did as he wanted.So in this film,maybe I don’t want to know the end of the film,the man has given me a deep impression by doing such things.

    Profit is not the ultimate goal of corporate, it is the social responsibility that make the corporate survive and predominate in the competitive commercial market. McDonald is no exception.

  • Edison PG 4

    From the debate in class today, I do get a conclusion that the one who can protect Chinese people, especially Chinese children, from the harm of McDonald is ourselves. It is true that McDonald did not force us to eat its fast food 3 times a day. It is our own choice to get into McDonald and it is Chinese parents themselves who take children into the world of junk food. It is free market and any company has the right to advertise. The smarter our consumers will be, the further we are from McDonald, the healthier our children will be.

  • Clark PG5

    In my opinion,fast food is just for the situation when you are in a hurry.And there will be no possibility that I feel like it.Because it’s unhealthy.And I wonder why McDonald’s spends over 2 billion$ on advertising rather than creating healthier and more nutritious food for people.

  • Robert PG6

    The less fast food you eat,the better.Nutritional balance is most important.

  • Christina PG 4

    One who can’t help eating too much junk food deserves to be a bikini babe.

  • Julie PG5

    The serious health problems McDonald’s has brought to people are especially Worrisome. The obese body, high blood pressure, diabetes, and so on. It is time for us to seriously think about it and make a change.

  • Elinna PG6

    For their own interest, McDonald’s develop a variety of marketing strategies to attract customers. We should resist these temptations to keep our health. If we eat fast food frequently, indicators of our body will deviate the normal range. Eat healthy food; keep our body for our relatives and for ourselves.

  • Bob PG5

    There must be a limitation on everything.We are always facing with a variety of desires,such as delicious food.If we eat too much fast food like McDonald and KFC,we will be fat.They are no good to our health.

  • Everything has two sides, just depends on whether it benefit us or not.

    I am still wondering who should call for the responsibility of the obesity in American society. The fast food restaurants like McDonald’s? The deficiency of physical exercise? The undisciplined exposure to high-nutritious food? Maybe!
    In my consideration, their living principles concerned. As we all know, the American is the people who emphasize efficiency most. Time is really money for them, and they are trying their best to shorten any time they spend on everything, including the food they eat and the way they eat. So the fast food with high-density nutrition comes to be their first choice. Moreover, they think doing exercises everyday may waste quiet a lot of time, so they hold a “so-so” attitude toward physical exercises. We Chinese people can cook for nearly for two hours and just end their dinner in 20 minutes, and we can wait for 30 minutes until the tea leaves completely stretch.
    Having a slow living mode is a good way to calm down the impatient Americans, which can be a better method to soften the obesity.

  • Jenny PG 4

    I think both of the company and the customers have responsibility. For the company, it should not take advantage of children’s ignorance. They are so young that they can’t distinguish between good and bad, they are lured by promise of fun toys. Beside, I don’t think what the parents do to control their children are right. They know the food is not healthy, but they do nothing to stop children to eat at McDonald’s. At the same time it is time for the government to take action to improve this situation. The government can’t keep McDonald’s out of China, but it can limit the number of the stores.

  • PeterPG1

    I hope it won’t do any damage to Morgan!

  • Crystine PG 5

    The man is brave to be a white rat.Whoever eating the same food three meals a day for thirty days may get health problems.But the result can also be a proof of under-nutritious McDonald’s.

  • SamPG5

    I bet Morgan must have spent a fortune in the McDonald’s. :)

  • John PG6

    Maybe supersize is very good to meet the desire to eat, but it may harm our health very much.

  • Rose PG3

    health is more important our taste desire .I have never been to McDonald’s,and will never go to.

  • Ken PG5

    This movie shows that it is harmful to eat McDonald, in the film a man eat fast food for 30 days and it gives him a worse health condition than before. It teaches us not to eat junk food next time or you will go into grave quickly.

  • John PG 1

    Fast food makes our life convenience. But every thing has two sides. When it helps us save our time, it also hurts our health. We can eat fast food, but it must get control. Maybe once a month is just OK. When it comes to our children, we must strict control its frequency. Its not only about ourselves, but it also cares about our children’s future.

  • Shelley PG3

    This man is crazy. But he did reveal us the harm what fast food can do with us. My rule for the food is healthy. Fresh fruit and vegetables are our best choice.

  • Susan PG 1

    I knew it’s not right to eat too much fat and i knew fast food really had no nutrition. But i didn’t know it could cause so much direct damage to our body. After watching this movie, i think i will never buy the food from McDonald, and I would educate my child in the future that not eat the fast food. I care about my health very much. Because i endured a disease before. So i appreciate the health of our body very much. Health is the most important thing. Be kind to yourselves, and stay away from fast food.

  • John PG4

    Everything have two sides.Most times we think what McDonald’s gives us are junk food and unhealthy,but sometimes it is very convenient for someone who do not have enough time have a regular meal.When I saw the movie,I was shocked by the bad effect of eating fast food too often. Although it takes less time and gives us another choice for food ,after all ,it is fast food and even though you eat one kind of regular food every day for a month or more you will get sick.So forget the bigger burger ,larger fries and more coke and live a healthy life.

  • Abner PG6

    •In my view, fast food is just for those who are in a hurry. And it is impossible to feel like it.it’s tasty but unhealthy. And I wonder why McDonald’s spend a lot on advertising rather than creating healthier and more nutritious food for people.therefore,we should stay away from it,and keep healthy

  • Richard_PG_1

    There’s a screen from the movie that two slim African-American people saying that they eat fast food every day and do exercise to maintain cool.That means although fast food contains too many calories,as far as we keep on exercising everyday,we won’t be as supersized as bikini babes.Maybe it is not fast food’s problem but those people’s fault that they just eat too much and are not willing to do exercise.On this point,I think it’s those people who should be blamed,not the fast food.

  • jim PG4

    Lots of people think that large amount of fast food is junk food.But in my view,the most significant thing is the eating habits.McDonald provides good service so it earn much money.As customers ,we should keep rational and prevent from being misled by the company.As parents,we must help our children to build a healthy eating habit.

  • Jack PG 3

    I think that a good eating habit is also important. When we know that the food in McDonald’s are junk food,we should change our habit! Nobody can force you to the McDonald’s, you can control yousefves!

  • RosePG2

    In my view,I content that McDonald does not have any faulty,every company want to make profit.It is normal!but if you want to keep more health,you just do not to buy any fry food, I think this is up to yourself.

  • Alex.PG.4

    I think the Chinese goverment should take some steps to warn these fast food makers!

  • Martin PG 4

    When we pointed that McDonald’s should carry more responsibilities on maintaining the health of our children, we feel which is right to do this. Statistics support us to do so. However, mothers and fathers always pay little attention to their own responsibilities. The excuse is the last straw to grab! Criticizes are always easier than self-accusation. Let’s provide our children healthier with little junk food bought by us parents.

  • TimPG6

    Why so many people addicted to McDonald’s including children and parents? I think most of them are cheated. They hear and see advertisement here and there; sometimes they just go to fast food shop because others go. People may say that if you don’t like the advertisement, you can leave them alone. It just likes that one shout near you and says if you don’t want to listen you can block your ears. I feel that today more and more people choose to go out for eating, which lead people to go fast food shop more times.

  • Tony.PG.4

    In my opinion, McDonald is a company and its main goal is earning money for the stockholders, McDonald’s food is also one kind of commodity. Consumers buy the food or not are depending on theirs need. So we should be responsible for our health and we ought to have a judgment about the food from healthy or unhealthy.

  • ShirleyPG6

    Choosing what to eat is everyone’s right.If someone gets fat and unhealthy after eating a kind of food for a long time,he/she doesn’t need to blame anyone except himself/herself.

  • Zoe PG6

    I can’t understand a person takes his health as a joke just for proving McDonald’s health hazards.It’s unbelievable and it will never happen in China,I think. Here is my opinion about why Chinese kids love KFC,McDonald and so on :they need a place to do thier homework ,stay together and have fun with their friends ,and fast food restaurant is the best choice because it smells good ,creats a warm atmosphere to make urben kids feel free and happy ,and of course the food is delicious and novel to Chinese kids.

  • Tim PG 1

    You really want to be a BIKINI BABE? Oh, after I watch the movie, the fast food make me disgust, but we chose it for convince sometimes, if there is another choose, I will abandon it

  • Tom PG6

    Eating too much McDonald’s may make us fatter and unhealthier, but how much we eat is decided by ourselves. It is not McDonald’s business. Every restaurant wants to sale more food. We cannot only blame McDonald’s for its irresponsible.

  • Nancy .PG.4

    Nowadays, more and more people in China like to eat in McDonald’s or KFC, especially young people and the children. McDonald’s and KFC have become parts of our lives. After watching this movie, I was shocked. Morgan is so selfless that he tried the food everyday himself to prove us that the fast food is so harm to our health. Whether the behavior of Morgan is scientific or not, we should learn something from the movie. We all know that fast food is not good for ourselves. Maybe in some cases we must eat fast food for our meals to save our time; we can eat some of it. But we should eat less of them in our daily lives. We should be responsibly to our own health.

  • Chuck PG6

    Although we blame McDonald’s fast food resulting in the obesity epidemic in young people ,parents should also undertake the corresponding responsibilities.They are the one who pays for their children’s bill .As guardian ,they should educate their children how to choose and which is the best choice .

  • Gloria PG 3

    Supersize Me has really surprised me. The changes which happened on the hero are out of my imagination. To tell the truth, I often go to McDonald’s, not because of its taste but because of its convenience. McDonald’s seems to follow us no matter where we go, shopping malls, business centers, tour spots and so on. But now, I will try my best to get rid of it. Every time I go past McDonald’s, the hero’s image will come up before me.
