Don't Eat This Book

Presents a humorous yet seriously critical examination of America's seduction by fast foods and the resulting health effects. Morgan Spurlock traveled across the country into schools, hospitals, and people's homes to investigate school lunch programs, the marketing of fast food, and the declining emphasis on health and physical education. He looks at why fast food is so tasty, cheap, and ultimately seductive, and shares what Americans can do to turn the rising tide of obesity, hypertension, and diabetes that have accompanied its ever-growing popularity.
