Director and science project Morgan Spurlock sets his sites on the golden arches to make a statement about obesity.  He eats nothing but McDonaldÕs for 30 days and watches as his vital signs go south.  He uses this icon as a launching pad to make the statement that our fast food society, including school lunches, the corporations that have molded this culture and the politics involved have combined to make us the fattest nation in the world.
