I just got done watching Super Size Me. Kristen checked it out from the library tonight. I’ve wanted to see it since I first heard about it, but we just got around to it.

Kristen fell asleep about 10 minutes into it. She hates documentaries thoroughly. Not that she is a prude or anything, but if it isn’t a home re-design show or a makeover show… She’s not watching it.

I was disgusted by what I saw. But I’m not 100% the facts all pan out on that one either. It’s kind of got that Michael Moore feel to it where everything is believable when you are watching it, but when you apply your mind to it some of the logic just falls apart. The reality is that the filmmaker could have eater tofu for 30 days and had similar results. When you don’t have a balanced diet and exercise you gain weight and feel like crap. That’s a surprise?

On the other hand, I thought McDonald’s was gross before I watched the movie and was just further disgusted by them after the movie. I think taking apart any major corporations marketing strategies will always lead you you wicked consumerism.

In the same regard, I am officially leary of Wal*Mart after watching “Is Wal*Mat Good for America?” on Frontline a few weeks back.

I don’t know whether to stop shopping at these two places, or readjust my portfolio since they are both so profitable?
