The Bizarre Aftermath of Super Size Me | McDonald's Documentary

Video Description

Have you ever wondered what happened as a consequence of Super Size Me? Was McDonald’s mad? Did they retaliate against Morgan Spurlock? This video answers “What did McDonald’s do after Super Size Me”. It tells the strange story of John Cisna, a science teacher from Iowa who lost weight on his “McDiet” and convinced the teens in his high school that McDonald’s fast food wasn’t as bad as they thought. We discuss “540 Meals” - the controversial documentary created by McDonald’s and John Cisna, and sent to middle schools and high schools across America - and unravel a 20 year old mystery in the process. When Super Size Me came out - McDonald’s took out ads in Australia and the UK telling people not to see the film. It backfired. So in America - they seemingly didn’t react at all. Other than ending their Super Size program the very same year… This video investigates whether that’s all McDonald’s did in America, or if McDonald’s simply decided to conceal their reaction to Super Size Me from the public - and try a sneakier tactic instead… Credible source for further reading: https://digitalcommons.law.scu.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?referer=&httpsredir=1&article=1092&context=facpubs TIMESTAMPS: 0:00 - Super Size Me and McDonald's 1:12 - John Cisna & The McDonald's Experiment 3:20 - This Wasn’t About McDonald's 6:47 - SUS 9:30 - CHOICES 13:18 - McDonald's Reaction 15:10 - John Cisna vs Morgan Spurlock 16:30 - A "Normal" McDonald's Diet 19:51 - The Aftermath of “540 Meals" 23:00 - The Smoking Gun Thanks for watching! *~*~* ✉️ Send me a Video Suggestion! ✉️ https://geni.us/video-suggestions 💬 Join me on Discord! 💬 https://geni.us/join-our-discord 👀 Check out our subreddit! 👀 https://www.reddit.com/r/KianaDocherty/ ⭐️ GET MY GUIDE! ⭐️ How to Change: A Guide to Breaking Bad Habits and Getting Motivated Get it here: https://kdocherty.com/how-to-change?cam=video61 🤓 MY RECOMMENDED BOOK LIST 🤓 https://geni.us/kiana-book-list 💖 FOLLOW ME! 💖 IG: https://www.instagram.com/kianadocherty/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@kianadocherty Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/KianaDocherty/
