      Cruel reality

      Just after reading it, from seeing the burger maker spitting into the mayonnaise, he was disgusting to the end. In the real environment, everyone has to have an ugly side, and there is no way to change it, even if you give up your job in a fast food restaurant. , What about cutting the fence? Those cows are already comfortable lives that don’t know how to escape; even if you know that there is shit in the hamburger, what about eating it after it’s cooked; even if you know that you went to work...

      The miserable world of food

      Mexican immigrants embarked on the path of pursuing the dream of the United States. What did they encounter?
      This is a comprehensive book of social criticism, for the weak, the tragic fate of Mexican migrant workers, abuse and self abuse, the fate of immigrant women, being sexually abused by supervisors, it seems that sex is always the greatest exploitation of women. The tragic fate of cattle, the flag of animal protectionists, the dirty history of food, how many secrets are in fast food....

      Fast food empire

      At first I saw the name of this movie and thought it was a documentary like "Supersize Me", but it turned out to be no, because there are a large number of very realistic shots of slaughtering, cutting, and processing, including interviews with related members. It's not because the movie cleverly interspersed three stories in parallel.
      Unexpectedly, the girl who resembled the "razor" (especially the beautiful eyes) eventually chose to give up her job and join the radical student group,...

      Fast Food or Fastly Die

      It is still the same multi-line story, seemingly unrelated, but closely connected, ordinary events, tragic processes, and sad results. This is the current situation of society. Continue to live like this and succumb. Just like the cow in the movie, when people give it freedom, it has become accustomed to genetic food like garbage, and they don’t want to run to the grassland of freedom, even if they know their destiny is. Death, and people, the garbage is finally recycled. Fast food, the food...

      definitely worth watching

      The film's about a fast food chain "MICKEYS"( sounds sooo familiar and thus make me uncomfortable), three stories crammed together telling a series of secrets behind the fast-food mogul---mickey's(I thought it's insinuating Macdonald's/KFC/PaPa Jones etc.), revealing many social problems as well as urging the audience to give them some thoughts.

      Don Henderson, a marketing Vice president at Mickey's, an upright and honest guy, was appointed to investigate why the fecal coliform counts...

      I have been a vegetarian for more than a year and a half. I have never regretted this decision from the beginning! Later, when I saw , I was very fortunate to be a vegetarian.

    Evaluation action

    "Fast Food Nation" pointed the finger at the fast food culture that has had a profound impact on American society, revealing the fact that fast food culture is infiltrating all aspects of American society. The fast food industry and mass entertainment industry jointly induce teenagers to indulge in junk food. Thought-provoking. As the film pointed out, the popularity of fast food culture is not unrelated to Hollywood's major film...
