'Super Size Me' Filmmaker Still Weighing In On Fast Food Issues

[Piasabird]

Remember Morgan Spurlock?

Here's some of the things he's saying now.

Spurlock's said he's still waiting to see what area of the dietary world he'll examine next: But one thing he does know for certain is that the possibilities are endless.

"Low carb, Atkins, they're all terrible," Spurlock said, laughing. "All these crazes are cyclical. There's low carb and before that there was no sugar, the sugar-busters and it will be fat again at some point."

Specifically addressing the low carb-Atkins craze, Spurlock said the whole idea "is absolutely mind-boggling" to him.

"Everybody wants the quick fix and everybody wants this simple solution, yet none of us want to work for it," Spurlock observed. "People say, 'I want to look good now, I want to feel good now, I want to be pretty now. What can I do to wake up tomorrow and be 100 pounds lighter?'"

Lets just hope that if he does decide to take on Atkins that he really takes on Atkins and not just what he perceives Atkins to be.

Frankly, I wish this media hungry opportunist would just go away.

That article is like a year old.

I completely agree with this statement:

"Everybody wants the quick fix and everybody wants this simple solution, yet none of us want to work for it," Spurlock observed. "People say, 'I want to look good now, I want to feel good now, I want to be pretty now. What can I do to wake up tomorrow and be 100 pounds lighter?'"

Too many people think Atkins is a quick fix and it's barely any faster than any other plan.

Thanks for pointing that out, Iapetus. I hadn't read it before and I didn't check it for a date. I don't know what the smilie with the rolling eyes is suppose to mean though.

Does anyone know if Mr. Spurlock has done anything on the Atkins WOE? Does he have a weekly program now?
