Doesn't look as interesting at the first film, but maybe it won't be bad. I don't think it should be called "Super Size Me 2" though.

Could be OK. Agree the title is a little misleading.

While I get the SSM title, it surely needed a bold subtitle, something playing on the free range idea. Meanwhile in Canada... finding out Subway's chicken breast is barely 50% chicken, the rest is soy. That's a couple years old now & the silence has to speak volumes, that Subway's lawsuit was mere bluffing? www.cbc.ca/news/business/marketplace-chicken-fast-food-1.3993967Of course, it's not like the product is dangerous or something, it's just false advertising.

I might find this topic interesting if I cared how much room a chicken had to roam before it was killed and eaten, or if I thought fast food was my healthiest choice.
"Expect jaw-dropping revelations!" Really? If you're over the age of ten you understand mass produced foodstuffs of any kind are not the healthiest thing you can put into your body. Maybe his next doc can be a revealing look at how boxing or MMA is dangerous. "You'll be surprised at the effects repeated blows to the head have on your mental health."
I also take issue with the idea that USDA restrictions are simply 'labeling.' It's an extremely cynical view and while the system can be gamed, no restrictions at all would be catastrophic to public health while too many restrictions would be catastrophic to the economy as well as the supply chain.
In short, people gotta eat. And they don't have to eat fast food, which is why it's best taken in moderation.

I remember Morgan Spurlock creating and hosting the TV show "30 Days" which aired on the FX channel and lasted for 2 seasons. I think the complete series is on DVD. Each episode has a person live a certain way for 30 days like Spurlock did in Super Size Me. Spurlock himself even participated in a few episodes (minimum wage, jail, Indian reservation). You might find some episodes or episode clips on YouTube or online somewhere.
Some of the episodes include:
30 days living on minimum wage 30 days living off the grid 30 days living on an Indian reservation 30 days living as a Muslim 30 days where a homophobic man lives with a gay man 30 days living as an inmate in jail
