Supersize me

[Guest guest]

I watched that movie Supersize Me this weekend, it was on Showtime. I

found it really interesting, now I know that he could have made better

choices at Mickey D's and the movie was biased against the fast food

places but it did make a lot of good points, especially about the

marketing towards kids. My almost 3 year old grandson recognizes all of

the fast food places we see along the road. I have been taking him to

Macdonalds once a week, mostly to play in the playground (they made

that point too) and we usually have a Happy meal, nuggets with apple

dippers and white milk. He dips his apple in ketchup but at least it is

better than fries I guess. He also eats all the tomatoes off Granma's

salad. He is so active I can't ever imagine him having a weight problem

but the movie did make me think about going less often.

I could not believe how the portion sizes have changed over the years,

but that is true no matter where you eat, no one needs as much food as

is served in restaraunts these days.

If you haven't seen the movie, I reccomend it too.
