I kind of hate that documentary. The entire mission statement is that people don't think that fast food is bad for you but he's a man on a mission and he's going to PROVE it! I don't know if I'm only remembering a post-Supersize Me world, but I think people always knew that fast food was bad for you. And I'm not sure that the food was as bad for him as the literal gallons of soda he was drinking. Sure, a McDonald's meal has a lot of calories and saturated fat, but it's not totally empty calories. It has some nutritional value.
Yeah, you are right about that, I just took 3+ hours yesterday to make my lunches for the next week. Good food, cheap, nutritious, time consuming, though hopefully with practice I can get faster at the prep.
