and yes about 3 meals a day, but the judge said in the beginning of movie in the lawsuit that if it can be validated that eating McD's all the time, every meal, can endanger health, then he will consider the lawsuit.

So that is why I think ate it all the time. But the lawsuit was thrown out anyway.
The judge through the lawsuit out because the girls involved in it did nothing to prove their case as the judge had asked. That was the whole purpose of what was done was to see if they could have proven it if they would have gotten up and tried.

I think the more disturbing and yet up lifting portion of the movie was the part about how kids eat in school. Showing the shitty meals kids are given and the complete lack of guidence in many cases when they are at school. Yet, when problem children are put in a situation and fed foods that were healthy and not compacted with sugar they actually became better and well behaved. I think that makes for an interesting study that someone should do with more children.

Lets face it. We are taught poor eating habits right from the get go. My eating habits were HIDIOUS for years. It took me a long time to break them and start eating the right way. Lots of my own studying and inspection to find a better and healthier way to live. Not everyone is going to do that though. So they will just continue on the path they were taught by their parents or peers, and continue to eat crappy food. In many cases this will lead to many more problems then just being overweight.
