He's known for super size me, but I think the 30 days series is even more memorable... Such a huge loss. RIP Morgan.
Woah! What? I remember watching Supersize me in Science class back in High School and everyone was grossed out how he vomited 🤢 outside of his car after having a McDonald's meal.

The film was also debunked. It's why he never released the data for anyone to compare to a recreation experiment.

@@Buzz_Kill71 Because Spurlock failed to mention his alcoholism at the time, it was assumed that the effects on his liver were due solely to the fast-food diet. McDonald's discontinued its "supersized" meal portions six weeks after the film's debut. But since the truth of his alcoholism emerged, viewers have been forced to wonder how much of the health issues discussed in the film were connected to his alcohol abuse.

Oh, my dear! It was after a battle, a long battle against a worthy opponent! Isn't it always a battle? These looooooooong battles are terrifying and horrific! Inevitably, a cancer "victim" loses the battle; that's heartbreaking! Cancer is heartbreaking, and then losing the battle is even more heartbreaking. Did you know that the only way one can die of cancer is after a long heartbreaking battle, a struggle or tragic fight? Dear me.... that's heartbreaking (and quite a battle)! Oh well, I'm off to that hidden gem (the food is to-die-for)! If it's not one thing, it's another. Wasn't it Plato or Socrates who coined that profound wisdom? RIP (heartbreaking)

People in "The Mob" are not human beings. They're animals. They will never forgive or forget. They are the ones that should be on trial, not Spurlock. He was just a fallible human being who made some mistakes, but ultimately raised awareness and did a lot of good in the world. That's how he will be remembered. "The Mobs" legacy will be of vitriol and hatred. R.I.P.
Rest in peace ❤
May he rest in peace

Oh no. The scam artist masquerading propaganda as "documentaries" is dead. Such a big loss ...
For me, it's the McChicken. The best fast food sandwich. I even ask for extra McChicken sauce packets and the staff is so friendly and more than willing to oblige. One time I asked for McChicken sauce packets and they gave me three. I said, "Wow, three for free!" and the nice friendly McDonald's worker laughed and said, "I'm going to call you 3-for-free!". Now the staff greets me with "hey it's 3-for-free!" and ALWAYS give me three packets. It's such a fun and cool atmosphere at my local McDonald's restaurant, I go there at least 3 times a week for lunch and a large iced coffee with milk instead of cream, 1-2 times for breakfast on the weekend, and maybe once for dinner when I'm in a rush but want a great meal that is affordable, fast, and can match my daily nutritional needs. I even dip my fries in McChicken sauce, it's delicious! What a great restaurant.
In the end, he died for our sins, specifically Gluttony. God rest his soul.
