Never understood the point of it. What exactly was the point he was making? If you eat only copious amounts of crap food for every meal and don't exercise (while drinking heavily), you will have bad health outcomes? No fucking way. What an eye opener. Used to think my teachers were retarded showing this in class. Who the fuck was advocating that he do what he was doing?

although I don't agree with you considering the way fast food restaurants are currently advertising themselves, I do think this is an important point on the original point of fast food. It was a treat the whole family could enjoy once in a while, the novelty stemming from the "carside" / window service aspect and how fast it was made. quick, inoffensive fun... NOT something to be eaten regularly

this. I wonder how fat activists are responding to the popularity of his decline... people seem universally disgusted at what is happening to him and are literally telling him he will die if he continues. seems to be a major blow to the fat acceptance movement due to the fact that you can literally see he's fat because he overeats, period.. no secret mystical problem that causes fat people to just "exist"

If you look carefully at the editing of the scenes where he goes to various doctors before and after his "experiment", the GP who tells him to "stop because this is hurting you" is either sat in exactly the same position, with his desk laid out in exactly the same way, wearing exactly the same clothes and with exactly the same hair and stubble, OR it's all footage from the first visit and he's talking about Spurlock's alcoholism.

Are you retarded?

'Fast food' and takeaways have been around for centuries, and have often been a reserve of the almost poor. If you were a craftsman in a mid 1500 town without a stay at home wife (as many working class women did have to work for most of history) you could either sacrifice two or three hours wages in order to cook, or you could end up spending an hour's wage on buying a hot pie at the local pie shop.

It was literally a money saving exercise for most of history. It's only in the last 100 years that fast food has become explicitly addictive with a hope to entice people who aren't time poor to buy it regularly.

That's because Texas is the only state that standardizes the same textbook across every school in the state, and it's a big state both physically and population wise.
That means it has a huge amount of clout with textbook publishers, because whatever book they pick will be a massive order.
