300 word summary

Watching 'Super Size Me' made me think twice about eating from McDonald's.  I remember specifically about the two girls suing McDonald's for there intentional harming children with the food.  The movie is basically about proving that McDonald's intentionally making our children addicted to their food, making them overweight all around the world.  Even thought the girls lost their lawsuit against McDonald's, that doesn't mean Super Size Me didn't show everyone what really is going on within McDonald's.  Meanwhile Chapter 2 in Fast Food Nation was talking about how they influence you into buying their products.  For example,  McDonald's influence your decisions by having products that lean towards their restaurants, like Telephones that are shaped like french fries, or bean bag dolls, and things like that.  They also mention the process of how McDonald's became what it is today.  How Ray Kroc took the McDonald's Food Chain nationwide, and how he worked along side with the Walt Disney during the time they were constructing Disney Land.  How they advertised their products with idealistic positive comments given by the customers.
