Super Size Me is a real movie about the fast food lifestyle how to affect the people’s health and living method. This movie was directed by and starring Morgan Spurlock.

Spurlock’s film follows a 30-day time period (February 2003) during which he subsists entirely on food and items purchased exclusively from McDonald’s, and the film documents this lifestyle’s drastic effects on Spurlock’s physical and psychological well-being and explores the fast food industry’s corporate influence, including how it encourages poor nutrition for its own profit.

Use the following format when writing your opinion essay (you don’t have to write your third and forth reasons as mentioned below, only two or three reasons is fine, but it’s up to you):

Paragraph 1 - Introduction (you should make your opinion clear during this paragraph)
Paragraph 2 - Your first reason with examples and evidence
Paragraph 3 - Your second reason with examples and evidence
Paragraph 4 - Your third reason with examples and evidence
Paragraph 5 - Reasons why the opposite opinion should also be considered (this helps make your essay more balanced)
Paragraph 6 - Conclusion (you should state your opinions again in this paragraph)

Before writing your essay, check these questions first:

1. How often do you eat fast food? Why do you eat it? Which is your favourite?
2. Do you think fast food is bad for you? Why?
3. Do you think people are eating more fast food than they used to?
4. What effects has fast food had on society today?
5. What do you think will happen to fast food restaurant in the future?

Following is my little essay:

I don’t think we have to blame the fast food companies. I think the fast food companies just a small part of the American culture.

The fast food culture is so popular because people have no choice but to accept it. The modern speed of life is so fast that it doesn’t allow time to make a healthy and balanced diet.

As you know, because of its economy, the USA has been producing a fast food culture and it has spread all over the world. So the people in other countries want to copy the ‘American Life’ to make themselves like living in a modern society.

Someone told me that fast food companies provide the junk food, but that’s the reason to blame fast companies. In fact, even today, there’re a lot fo more healthy diet options in restaurants, and they may even be cheaper.

As I mentioned in this essay, I think modern life culture is to blame.

For God’s sake, no more than 200 words! Caroline’s comment:
