Description: Filmmaker Morgan Spurlock embarks on a journey to find out if fast food is making Americans fat. For 30 days he cant eat or drink anything that isnt on McDonalds menu; he must eat three square meals a day, he must eat everything on the menu at least once, and supersize his meal if asked. He treks across the country interviewing a host of experts on fast food and a number of regular folk while downing McDonalds to try and find out why 37% of American are now overweight. Spurlocks grueling diet spirals him into a metamorphosis that will make you think twice about picking up another Big Mac. http://bit.ly/supersizme
