It's a really intersting article on the subject of obesity and the effects fast-food can have on you.

Morgan has made a documentary on his experiment which he calls "Super Size Me - A Film Of Epic Portions". He won the Best Director award for it at the Sundance Film Festival, so I'd say it's worth a look. Check the link for the film's web page.
