This was the best documentary on the subject of obesity in America I've seen. Seeing how school cafeterias look more like a mall food court with brand name fast food joints littering the wall, and not just high school or middle school, but even elementary school now, is just incredible. How can a healthy lunch even compete with that? As the film went on I heard gasps from the people around me. We see young children being told they must have surgery to survive, being told to eat better or die, but then they switch from one food they're told is bad to another that's just as bad but says "Light" on the package and it's all a little unnerving. We've had to re-name adult onset diabetes because it's not just for adults anymore. In the end the film asks you to try a couple of weeks without refined sugar in your diet, and I couldn't agree more.
