Super Size Me

Morgan Spurlock decides to eat nothing but McDonalds for breakfast, dinner and supper for 30 days in an attempt to discover whether it is helathy for you. Inspired by an American lawsuit, Spurlock meets many McDonalds fanatics along the way and his progress is followed by doctors and nutritionists whose predictions at what would happen are far off what really happens. There are only a few rules he follows: he must supersize if asked to, he must only eat McDonalds food and drink drinks sold there and he must eat everything on the menu once.

Factual error: Morgan says that french fries are one of the seven items on McDonalds menu that doesn't contain sugar. French fries, in fact, do contain dextrose - a form of sugar. This is mentioned on DVD commentary.
