Not to defend him, but in the documentary he said that he would say yes every time a McDonald's employee asked him if he wanted a supersize portion.

So at least he was showing how much McDonald's wanted you to eat as much as possible. This lead to McDonald's removing their supersize portions.

My takeaway when I watched it was that it's the fries and drink that are bad for you. He interviewed the eccentric guy who ate Big Macs every day and was skinny/healthy, probably because he never ate fries or drank the sugary drinks.

As opposed to restaurants which still do just drop 2500 calories on the plate and call it a day?
