What did McD do to win the sue? Did McD make an event to reach again his customers?

Yes, I saw the movie. It was a documentary of a guy eating McDonalds 3 meals a day for 30 days. He gained about 20 pounds and began having chest pains towards the end. It's a decent movie to watch if you want to convince yourself to not eat McDonalds anymore.

The two women lost their suit against McDonalds. And a new law was passed to prevent future suits of this nature. It was decided, they were not forced to eat the food, and therefore were responsible for their own actions. McDonalds view point was basically this....that people should not consume fast food on a daily basis, it is only there for occasional consumption, like when you don't have time to cook for whatever reason. It would be like someone eating nothing but Snickers bars for every meal, and dying of a heart attack. You know you should only eat the candy bar once in a while, so you shouldn't be allowed to sue the company that makes it. I can't say I disagree, but McDonald's advertising IS deceptive in some ways. Otherwise, why would they have to put a toy in a meal to get kids to want their parents to buy it? Personally, I won't ever eat there! If I must eat on the run, I choose Wendy's, where I can get a salad and baked potato instead of those fatty burgers and greasy nasty fries! I mean really, did you see what happened to that guy after eating all that crap?

The movie was very interesting. I liked the part when he supersized his Quarter pounder meal and threw up because one of the rules was that he had to finish the meal he ordered. It was way too much food!
McDonald's is having a Monopoly game right now to lure people back. I even find myself eating there more often during promotions because I want to win $5,000,000!!

That movie was offensive to Mickey Ds
Whoever eats only McDonalds for a month will suffer, you should eat a variety of foods every day.
Really hurt their business.
It made people feel kinda bad about eating McDonalds and sure got everyone craving salads.
I kinda wish they never made that documentary.

Is is a very well done film. There was no lawsuit. McDonald's has overhauled its menu since by offering some healthier alternatives and got rid of the supersized fries.

I really liked the documentary, but I like McDonald's food even more. After seeing it, I started to get cravings for a double quarter pounder with cheese.

Nope...and I never want to either. All it does is cause ridiculous lawsuits against McDs and other restaurants.

I love that movie. They should make all the students watch it twice. This movie says what i have been trying to say since I could say Grimmis....lol Seriously its so crazy to me that people pay to feed themselves garbage filled chemicals. And the ones that know don't even care but get mad and wanna sue when they get sick. I don't get it. I feel the same Way about people that smoke. You are literally buying certain death.
