>make a documentary that says eating more calories than you burn = you getting unhealthy and fat
>changes the entire food industry and wins al kind of prestigious awards
were uncs really this retarded?

I bet history will look back on this with the idea that "people didn't know mcdonald's was bad for you before this movie came out"

Never believe history.

it didn't change the entire food industry, it just got mcdonald's to remove the supersize option because of the bad publicity. pretty much the only impact it had

Yes. We also fell for an inconvenient truth.

I never watched this shit but the WKUK parody with whiskey is one of my favorite skits by them.

It's the same kind of excuse my dad always makes, every time we talk about something unhealthy or just plain stupid that people did in the past he goes: "Well, they didn't know back then!"

Does he think that everybody was just retarded 50 years ago?

>mfw you have to make a documentary to show Americans that eating fast food 3 times a day isn't healthy
>mfw they still don't believe it

>almost get away with it
>get thrown into such a panic because of some nonsense metoo bullshit nobody bought anyway that you trip over yourself to reveal you were a chronic alcoholic instantly letting even normalfags in on the fact that your one and only notable contribution was a total fraud
What drives a man to be like this?

It's funny cause the original guy used whiskey too

His documentary also taught millions of impressionable young people that documentary makers will often lie by omitting important facts to push an agenda, like him omitting the fact that he was a raging alcoholic and he was consuming a ton of additional calories from that during the experiment

Don Gorske is doing just fine because he isn't supplementing fast food with a liter o liquor which is why he has outlived Spurlock.

McDonald's did supersize me. It was a hitpiece on themselves to justify worse value
