Supersized

I caught Super Size Me at the DC Film Festival yesterday. It is a story of a man who eats at McDonald's three times a day for a month without exercising.

The creator of the film, Morgan Spurlock, was there and led a pretty good Q&A on the film. Most interesting was the problem of primary and secondary school lunches, which offer students lots of choices, but many of the kids choose the worst foods to eat. And all of the choices consist of pre-packaged, preserved foods.

The Competitive Enterprise Institute was there to protest the movie--one of their analysts, Soso Whaley engaged in a simiar experiement where she ate salads from McDonald's for a month and exercised. She lost weight.
