There’s literally a section in the documentary where his doc is like ‘You’re getting liver damage from this diet. I don’t believe it. I’ve only ever seen this from alcoholics.’

It wasn’t a study. It was a stunt. The stunt worked. People ate less fast food, and laws were passed restricting the companies ability to market to children.
Not to mention that McD’s discontinued the Super Size option.
I’m not saying it was a study, I’m saying people refer to it as one or treat it as one with alarming regularity.
Some people are stupid and they will believe anything that they see on TV. With how this documentary was framed as well, a lot of people just went about their lives assuming it was something that was reviewed and unflawed. There is a reason it was such a big deal when it came out he was an alcoholic during filming. About half of the documentary becomes completely worthless because we now know he was seriously lying during filming about what he was consuming. Which suddenly calls the entire thing into question because if he’s willing to slide on something as major as that, then what is the value of the rest of it?
