Advertising is probably also a major contributor...

I really can't understand why so many people like McDonalds. Take the burgers - semi-stale buns of poor quality bread, plasticy sauces, rubber cheese and manky burgers which seems about as far from real meat as its possible to get without breaking trade description laws.

I did notice a difference between the food at a McDonalds in Europe and one in the US. I prefer the later, but that may be because it is what I am used to.
As far as the movie Supersize me... what a disappointment. If you eat nothing but fast food for a month, of course you will become unhealthy. Especially when you force yourself to eat so much that you vomit (which he did).
Anyway, blaming obesity on the restaurants is shortsighted. Instead, let's increase the activity level in our lives a little... or address the psychological issues that contribute to people gaining weight, like low self esteem...

I see not so smart eating habbits as a bad habbit difficult to correct, like smoking. Child experience might also play an important role. Maybe if you eat lot of vegetables, salad and fruits you stay with it all your life. Maybe more and more people are getting into fast food influencing their kids (just theory).
But as I said: Its difficult with this choco automat 50 meters from office.

In most of the pubs and bars I go to if you ask for some potato chips, they used give a regular packet, they never seem to put enough chips in it. Now they give you double size packet called big eat so they can charge double the price.

Children are getting obese because of behavior, not eating. When I was a kid, most kids ran around all over the place outside all day. Now they watch video and play computer games. In fact, I'd be afraid for my kids if they were running around the neighborhood where I couldn't see them.
Also, when I was a kid most girls were enrolled in jazz, tap or ballet classes (or more than one), and most boys played in Little League sports. Nowadays, few working parents have the time or money to take their kids to activities.
