hello everyone. okay, so today one of my coworkers went to mcdonalds for lunch and super sizes his order. now, i haven't been to one for awhile so i was unaware of how enormous the super sized drink has become. it is gigantic! i can't believe the chain uses a cup the size of a small popcorn cup in movie theatres. when i was in europe, the x-large serving size there was a large here... their large was a medium... and so forth. there are no all you can eat buffets there. it just makes me think of the american mentality that bigger is better. and as a result, we are making ourselves sick. not only from the mass food consumption but i think of other things... like how the hummer 2 is currently being marketed. because people really need a car that size. and that is making us sick too because those large utility vehicles are polluting our air faster than a small sedan. i just don't understand. when will moderation become fashionable?
