I'm not a big fan of the documentary. This guy fucks up in quite a number of ways. His cause is noble, but he's hardly doing it the right way IMO. BTW I think it's all the coke that is causing the stomach pain he's been suffering from since day one. The fastfood industry really looks totally different in America though .
Well, there has got to be an explanation for that. And I don't buy that it is simply all the advertising you are getting. How come Americans and Europeans differ?
Dear god, this guy is eating fastfood for a couple of weeks and he's dying.
The explanation is that the U.S. got a head start on sedentary lifestyles and the mass production of bad food with ghetto-fabulous flavor. The difference from Europe is that Europe is simply behind on the same trendline. The UK is coming up fast, and most others are following in lock step.
(Kind of like the European trendline that made you just discover this movie when we were discussing his follow-up shows, like 30 Days, almost two years ago. )
Mothers once told their children to never eat anything bigger than your head. In America today, they make a real effort not to serve anything smaller than your head.
It's called "value".... followed by the obligatory "fatass!".

lol. When you said "Europe sees it and Holland introduces.." I thought of Quick, that dreadful French fast food chain. They try to compete with MacDonalds and they totally fall on their ass, how hard is it to make hamburgers?

I found cod at their shop once... Didn't look too good though. But I've only lived in Middelburg and The Hague, both of which are directly located at the sea so I wouldn't buy my fish in the supermarket.
I would. I can't stomach fish markets. Back in Norway it was simple, buy frozen fish, fry it, done. You could go native, buy fish from the docks, gut it yourself, season with all kinds of spices and cook it. But who the hell wants to do that? It takes 2 hours.
The demonstrators took French restiveness to extremes
Hundreds of protesters in France have rung in the New Year by holding a light-hearted march against it.
Parodying the French readiness to say "non", the demonstrators in the western city of Nantes waved banners reading: "No to 2007" and "Now is better!"
