We study everything in school except how to eat healthy and take care of our bodies. There should be PRACTICAL knowledge on those topics.

Junk food should be renamed non-food, wrong-food, or chemical food, what ever signals this is not what human body can thrive on

Eat very little added sugar in your food, and it is almost overwhelming how sweet an apple or some grapes are. Eating high levels of sugar, to make something sweet, you need even more added sugar. Darn right sugar is addictive. Also salt, and fried crispy things.

Americans’ junk foods are all over the world like a pandemic

I know people want a taste of Western Fast Food wherever it is in the world but I still can't help but notice the irony in all of this regarding the fact that Brazil, India and France are actually culturally sophisticated in a broader culinary sense and highly renowned for their own cuisine around the world which are so influential in contemporary dining today.

I raised two children in the USA, and we were lower middle class income family. They grew up on milk, water, mom's home cooked foods, read library books, played outside, ... now a Dr and a lawyer! Perfect teeth, perfect health, trim and beautiful, accomplished!

*I actually love the fact that they started by comparing India to France making it seems like France as it all and then show how to fast food industry just plays a different game there and manage to trick French people too.*

“I tried everything except eating less and healthier, so the only solution is surgery.”

Really Appreciate this documentary. Such an eye opener....

McDonalds: we in no way advertise our products. Also McDonalds: sends in Ronald McDonald to promote McDonalds as a whole!

Great to see Ronald McDonald making appearances again, who knew he spoke such good Portuguese?

I am glad that every time I eat at a McDonald's or Domino's, I actually get sick cause it is too oily... Education/ministry's need to do more about this...

None of the food companies does not want have to an interview cause they know what kinds of question you going to ask, so they not going to bother and they just carry on making tonnes of money with people's health. is about BIG profit.

Thanks to this channel for giving us access to this information. This documentary was originally created by ENDEVR channel on KZfaq with close to 7M views, but the uploader has not made the video available in India.

This burns my soul, why can't I stop watching?

After having lost 50 extra lbs from getting on a regular work schedule, dietary focus on getting enough good vegetables and protein each day (not so much elimination of junk but crowding it out), and just walking, it’s soooo noticeable what a burden just some extra weight is. I carried that extra weight my whole life until a couple years ago. I see that teen boy and I imagine walking in that heat and having weight literally hanging from your gut and sides to have to carry with you and affecting your gait. No fun.

India has such a treasure trove of amazing flavors in their food you wonder how McDonald's could ever make a success of their operations on the sub continent.

50:10 He didn't get over his addiction, he just got fat removed

This documentary on Junk food was very interesting to watch.

There are soo many people in India who prefer homemade food it’s generally younger generation who are highly influenced by western word . In UK people are recently introduced to turmeric latte Indians been drinking that since ages. Indians use to have good health habits thanks to American companies it’s spoiled now

I really want fast food and fizzy drinks after watching this documentary. Almost as if this is an ad...

Parents need to lead the way because what they eat will influence their children more than any advert. I brought my 3 children up on home cooked foods with fresh organic ingredients served with water. 30 years later my children are skinny-healthy who eat fruits/vegetables/nuts/seeds and olive oil mostly for their diet.I am a man, by the way as my wife has been chronically ill for 33 years so i looked after her and brought the children up single-handedly while running a national company.Where there is a will there is way.Anyone can do it - all to do with your mindset.

Hello guys, I am a final year law student and I saw this documentary last year on hotstar. I am preparing a research paper on 'food marketing to children in India'. I am then planning to send it across to ministry of consumer affairs and ministry of health. If needed, can I count on public's support?

If you want fresh food, cook it yourself.

The last time I eat at a fast food was 8 years ago. No regrets xD I don't even buy pizza anymore, I'll cook it at home.

USA used to be the fattest in the world with all this crap and people laughed at us. Now Mexico has passed us, the UK and Kuwait are very close to us if not as bad and here we see India and Brazil coming in hot. I wish the world had learned from us instead of doing exactly what we did :(

I enjoy my share of junk food but after consuming my "cheat meals" I resent being addicted to it.

I am glad that I learnt a lot of things about junk foods from Google and KZfaq 😊

the grandma who bought coca colas for her young grandson needs to understand she aint doing him right

I bet even if you show this documentary inside a Domino's or mc Donald in a giant screen. Still PPL will keep eat their junk inside the outlet watching this documentary

Nobody ever talks about how toothless they're all going to be.

I like that this documentary focuses on placing the blame on big corporations, I've seen so many attempt to place the blame on consumers for being unhealthy, when usually they are chemically hooked on these products, and probably haven't been educated and.. its really not their fault usually? corporations are so shady in playing stupid like they've never heard of someone under the age of 12 touching their products even when directly asked. They should be held completely responsible for shoving their brands down everyone's throats and expecting people to simultaneously magically be healthy. These brands know fully well how bad their products are for you but never want to back down or change the way they are because they're lining their fat pockets and riding their yacht, and just want to shoo any criticism down the drain.

brilliant piece of work.....very informative

There are 4 steps in marketing which we call AIDA. Awareness - People knowing the brand Interest - People being responsive towards the brand or having a thought about the brand Desire - to buy the product Action - buying the product. Being aware is only the first step, people need more information to buy a product which the marketing teams provide to increase the engagement between the product and the users. So, people need to be more cautious when dealing with brands and products they buy People usually think that color is inconsequential, however, color and shapes are commonly associated with brands and they are easy to remember. By reinforcing colour through apps, the company is engaging with the customers on a level which the customer doesn't understand.

That was crazy to see Ronald McDonald in schools in Brazil! That would never be allowed in Canada. In Canada, the sodium levels are higher than in France at fast food restaurants. Lawmakers in all these countries need to keep these companies accountable

watching this is so scary thank god my parents barely let me eat fast food at a young age

When Michelle Obama tried to promote healthy legislature via the healthy eating initiative for kids school lunch, she was ridiculed by parents who stated “you can’t control what our kids eat for lunch” and it quickly ended. That was so sad to see

This is all some tragic dystopian novel playing out in front of our eyes

Went 95% plant based and it’s working out really really good.

That poor kid doesn't need surgery, just needs to exercise and eat less and healthier so he's in a calorie deficit

My teacher in elementary school (1980s America) taught us proper nutrition. She told us what was good to eat and what not to eat. How did she communicate it to us 3rd graders? “Look at me! I’m 40, fat as an elephant, and divorced. I eat the worst stuff and that’s why my husband left me. Boys, do you want to end up with someone like me? Girls, do you want to end up Like me? You all better eat well and take care of yourselves no matter what.” That sticks in our head to this very day.

8:25 the translator's baritone voice makes this lad appear far more sinister.

The classic battle between the sweet shop owner and the doctor. Good luck!

narrator: we went to a place that was open for the press domino guy to the press interviewer: cAn yOu jUsT LeAVe tHIs pLacE

I'm proud of myself that I eat junk food only in parties.

I justvrealised that all my weight problem started when i started eating mc donakd,kfc and those fizzy drink...never going to eat them from now on...

Dude the young fella was getting gastric surgery !? Thats insane

19:45 "we go out with friends and family".... eats by himself, cries into pizza.

Coca Cola has one of the largest (if not the largest) distribution models of any company. After all go to any small village in Africa or South America and go to any shop and you will find them selling Coca Cola

it feels so bad about those little ones who are getting hardwired in such a little age to those junk foods by these big brands

This documentary very well exposes the double standards of MNCs.

I live in Africa, and the Asians / Indians and wealthy African people here use these fast food joints as a way to boost their social status, I was completely shocked to see this, boasting about eating at Mc Donalds!

American fast food spread should be considered as a world wide pandemic.

It’s interesting how well kfc is doing in other countries but in the states it seems to being losing business daily🤷‍♀️

Corporate greed for money is universal, not only American. Corruption too.

I lost 3 lbs in a month with NO EXERCISE .

Im glad in my country the fresh and healthy food still cheaper then the fastfood and processed food, i mean if you have one bucks you can get vagie, egg, chiken, rice, noodle more vagie and one ice tea and you need 3-4bucks to eat big mac coke and fries nah people know which better we only go to fastfood when we want to hangout in long time with free Wi-Fi and big space lol

Funny, while I was watching this documentary, youtube showed me a 5 second junk food ad!

"Ronald McDonald came to my party, it was horrible"

I can relate so much to the advertising of pizza in school, as I clearly remember I first tasted and ate Dominos pizza in my school in Mumbai India. It was served to us free of cost in school, surely the school management knew less then about this slow poison food. This was when the company outlet had just newly opened up in Mumbai.

My pregnancy was the wake up call for me , I couldn’t expose my baby to this poison. So, I stopped. Now age 4 , I tried to protect him from all this madness, but I couldn’t completely but i still try . I don’t know how parents expose their children to this themselves ,likewise other crazy routines like only vegetables or whatever else.

Natural selection at its finest..

yall watching this for entertainment...chile this is my homework

United States: Ronald McDonald had an assembly performance at our school when I was little around 1996. Like a slapstick comedy routine where-in he invited kids up and basically embarrassed and made fun of them for laughs from the audience...great marketing.

As a brasillian, Brasil was badly portraited in this video, the country is not a mess like they described

Thank you for the making documentary on junk food. Eye Opener. Like the facts.

Sometimes I think the only solution to the human problem is a very big & well placed meteor.

In France nothing is open except Macdonald on Sunday...

there are choices. those cities with McDonalds without exception have markets and local restaurants too. of course some veggies are grown in a questionable way, and often some local foods are as quick to kill you than any. but there are choices, and those choices in the consumer's hand. a quote for context, bcos that context is what most of these documentaties often missing: "At Greek restaurants, the researchers found that a Greek salad has 960 calories and Moussaka had 1,440 calories. At Indian restaurants, Lamb Vindaloo had 1,170 calories and Chicken Tikka Masala had 1,430 calories. At Vietnamese restaurants, Beef Pho had 940 calories and Lemongrass Chicken had 1,270 calories. At Thai restaurants, Drunken Noodles with Chicken had 1,120 calories and Chicken Pad Thai had 1,480 calories. At Italian restaurants, Fettuccine Alfredo, which in 1994 the Center for Science in the Public Interest famously called a “heart attack on a plate,” had 2,270 calories." 1 bigmac = 563 calories. by no mean little. by no mean exceptionally large vs the above examples... everything with moderation?

Although fast food chains are finding more subtle ways and loopholes to earn more cash, the ultimate responsibility falls on the consumers themselves. It's up to the parents to provide healthy home-cooked meal to their kids, while instructing that fast foods should be considered special treats only available once a week or two. That doesn't mean we should put all the blame to parents that are poor, both of them having work to make the ends meet, living in a food desert district, etc. But at least they have to be aware of the consequences of resorting to fast food.

Such beautiful people happily ruining their own health. It's disgusting.

These guys keep changing the thumbnail and I keep falling for it.

Freedom of choice I'm off to get me a big Mac combo now 😝

"what's the matter boyfriend" says the little 5 year old girl lol 😂

Fast food outlets in schools is just about the most cynical move you could possibly think of. Can you imagine the kind of minds who would come up with it as a suggestion and then the kind of people who would agree to let it happen. It’s truly sickening

here cause some reeler said that this video is banned in india!

Parents are in charge. Take action !

Very Very Good Video Thank You

This document just blown my mind. ...

Did she just said "wow what an honour" to Ronald McDonald? 😂😂

This show actually made me like junk food more 😂 Thanks!!!

I drank my last fizzy drink in January 2018 now it's great to be clean. (Was addicted since childhood) PS - I don't eat any fast food ever..

When you have an assignment about this due Friday ;-;

Thanks for the documentary

Me: Eating pizza while watching this

I've been a bailbonds man for 46 year and a policeman for four years before that, so I think I've seen it all

Eating healthy food should be taught at school same as basic maths

"Not an ounce of cheese and 11.6% saturated fat - a nutritional nightmare" meanwhile 100g of cheddar is 21% saturated fat :D

the people now are not eating food..they are consuming just the food like substances..how tragic!!

As long as you have functioning kidneys, salt is not a problem and in fact, protects against heart disease. Always salt to taste and get at least 3-5 g/day. 24:27 It's not the saturated fat and salt that's harmful. It's the carbohydrates and toxic unsaturated seed oils! This doctor Chandra Bhushan, is sadly misinformed. But then most doctors are. Thanks Ansel Keyes!

I am asian, when i was young i seldom see obese people in the street but when the West brought their fastfoods into our country, today obesity becomes the norm...and illnesses like diabetes became part of our lives.

Why are we even calling it food?

The business model is to create addiction- chiefly amidst the poor. The corporate leaders would not dream of touching their own products- and laugh at those who do. This is not Food - just Drugs that should be illegal.

Did you noticed recently more and more commercials directed straight to the children? !!!

I lost 40 lbs. in 6 weeks with a VERY strict diet and ZERO EXERCISE. This kid’s having stomach surgery?!! He could lose that weight in 4-5 months. Yes, it would be a sacrifice. Yes, it would be difficult. He would need surgery for loose skin when he’s done, but to cut someone open and start modifying their body simply cause they have no self control or simply aren’t even willing to try (“I’ll stop after the surgery”) is absurd and an abuse of your medical license. This should be an absolute last resort.

Economic Imperialism and profit before people - the motto of the rich and powerful

I feel sorry for the kids more than anything, lacking the understanding of what this poison is doing to their health 😔

That Ronald McDonald clown has always creeped me out. Big business are like predators

What a covert way to be drug dealers.

"I haven't been sick , that's why I trust it (KFC)" For god's sake , raise your standards, lady.
