Super Size Me?

Okay, so the movie "Super Size Me" was on TV a few weeks ago -- and I saved it on my TiVo. I just watched it the other night finally -- it was really eye-opening. I don't eat fast food very often, and try to keep my diet full of organic and fresh foods rather than processed.

I have to say I was shocked at the "choices" children get in school. In most of the schools there were no vegetables, no fruit, nothing "live" -- but all processed junk foods. And the lunch ladies said they figured the kids were educated enough to make good choices. There were no healthy choices available!

I will also never ever eat chicken nuggets again. How gross! To show that they were made from misshapen chickens (probably full of hormones), ground up parts that would never be edible elsewhere, and tons of preservatives and chemicals added -- sick! How can we be eating this stuff -- or feeding it to our children?

I was also a bit surprised that it took about 9 months to recover from the one month binge of eating McDonald's food. Wow.

If you haven't seen Super Size Me -- it's well worth the time -- and may change the way you eat forever.
