SuPeR SIzE ME 2!!!!

1. Do you think consumers (people who buy things) have the right to sue McDonalds for selling unhealthy food? Why or why not?

No. Because McDonalds isn't the only restaurant that sells unhealthy food.

2.McDonalds is the largest owner of private playgrounds in the world. What other ways does McDonalds use to market their food to children?

They have cartoons, they have a clown, and they sell kid meals that come with toys.

3.How many calories do you think a healthy kid should eat in a day (click here for a clue)? According to the movie, how many calories are in a Super Size fries? How about a Double Gulp soda?

1,600 to 2,500 per day. 500 calories. .

SuPeR sIZe ME!!!!

1. How many times a week do you eat at McDonalds or other fast food restaurants? Do you ever think about whether what you are eating is healthy? Why or why not?

I eat macdonalds atleast every 2 or 3 weeks. I dont really think about that . Because a lot of kids these days dont pay attention to what they eat. but ii think im going to start paying attention to that more often.

2. What do you predict will happen to Morgan’s health at the end of the month? Do you think he will remain in perfect health?

I think morgan is going to gain a lot of weight. I dont think he is going to be in perfect shape beacause mcdonalds is fast food and has a lot of fat in it.

3. In one scene there is a shot of a McDonalds inside of a hospital. What do you think about that? Do you find it normal, funny, strange, or sad?

I think that is a very bad idea because in hospitals they want you to stay healthy and be in good shape , but having a mcdonalds in a hospital is bad because that is what the patients are going to want to eat mcdonalds and that will be a problem.

the meatrix

1.how do factory farms treat animals different from family farms?

In factory farms they don't give the animals the proper food, but in
family farms they give the animals the proper food.

2.
Why are animals fed antibiotics in factory farms and why is this dangerous?

They are fed antibiotics so that the animals can stay alive. This is dangerous because
if the animals eat too much antibiotics they can get what we call e coli and that is basically super bacteria . If the animals have e coli that goes in our meat.

3. What happens to animal excrement (poop) in factory farms?

It ruins the community because all the poop goes underground and the excrement
flows into the community river.
