Super Size Me 2: Is it Possible to Fake a Healthy Chicken Sandwich?
Director Morgan Spurlock Tackles Some Uncomfortable Questions
In his latest documentary, Super Size Me 2, Morgan Spurlock sets out to investigate the fast food industry's attempts to create healthier options. He focuses on the Subway "Eat Fresh Refresh" campaign, which promised to offer healthier chicken sandwiches. However, Spurlock's investigation reveals that the chicken used in these sandwiches is anything but healthy.
A Look Behind the Scenes
Spurlock visits several Subway restaurants and speaks to employees about the chicken sandwiches. He learns that the chicken is often processed with a variety of chemicals and preservatives. He also discovers that the sandwiches are not as low in calories or fat as Subway claims.
In one particularly disturbing scene, Spurlock visits a chicken processing plant. He watches as chickens are slaughtered and processed. He is horrified by the conditions in the plant and the way the animals are treated.
The Verdict: Is Subway's Chicken Sandwich Healthy?
Based on his investigation, Spurlock concludes that Subway's chicken sandwich is not healthy. He argues that the chicken is processed with unhealthy chemicals and that the sandwiches are not as low in calories or fat as Subway claims.
Conclusion: A Lasting Impression
Super Size Me 2 is a powerful and disturbing look at the fast food industry. Spurlock's investigation reveals that Subway's "Eat Fresh Refresh" campaign is nothing more than a marketing ploy. The chicken used in the sandwiches is not healthy, and the sandwiches are not as low in calories or fat as Subway claims.
Spurlock's documentary is a reminder that we should not be fooled by the marketing claims of fast food companies. We need to be aware of what we are eating and make informed choices about our food.
