The film documents【用文件证明】 this lifestyle's drastic effects on Spurlock's physical and psychological well-being, and explores the fast food industry's corporate influence, including how it encourages poor nutrition for its own profit. Spurlock dined at McDonald's restaurants three times per day, eating every item on the chain's menu. He would always choo to "super-size" his meal if he was offered by a McDonald's employee. Spurlock consumed an average of 20.92 megajoules 【兆焦】or 5,000 kcal【千卡】 (the equivalent of 9.26 Big Macs巨无霸) per day during the experiment. As a result, the then-32-year-old Spurlock gained 24½ lbs.

服务理念
The reason for Spurlock's investigation was the increasing spread of obesity throughout U.S. society, which the Surgeon General has declared "epidemic," and the corresponding
lawsuit brought against McDonald's on behalf of two overweight girls, who, it was alleged, became obe as a result of eating McDonald's food [Pelman v. McDonald's Corp., 237 F. Supp. 2d 512].[1] Spurlock points out that although the lawsuit against McDonald's failed (and subquently many state legislatures have legislated against product liability actions against producers and distributors of "fast food"), much of the same criticism leveled against the tobacco companies applies to fast food franchis who product is both physiologically addictive and physically harmful.[2][3]
The documentary was nominated for an Academy Award for Documentary Feature.[4]
It has been reported that a comic book version of the movie is in the works with Dark Hor as the publisher.[5]

He is en by 招商银行金卡three doctors (a cardiologist, a gastroenterologist, and a general practitioner), as well as a nutritionist and a personal trainer.

[edit] The Experiment
Spurlock has specific rules governing his eating habits:
∙ He must fully eat three McDonald's meals per day: breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
∙ He must complete every item on the McDonald's menu at least once over the cour of the 30 days (he managed this in nine days).
∙ He must only ingest items that are offered on the McDonald's menu. This includes bottled water. Any and all outside consumption of food is prohibited.
∙ He must SuperSize the meal when asked, but only when asked. He is not able to SuperSize by his own accord.
∙ He will attempt to walk about as much as a typical U.S citizen, bad on a suggested figure of 5,000 standardized distance steps per day,[6] but he did not cloly adhere to this, as he walked more while in New York than Houston.
On February 1, Spurlock starts the month with breakfast near his home in Manhattan, where there are an average of four McDonald's (and 66,950 residents, and twice as many commuters) per square mile (2.6 km²). He aims to keep the distances he walks in line with the 5,000 steps (approximately two miles) walked per day by the average American.
