So has anyone read this book and found it extremely interesting?!
Oh, and they made a movie based on it awhile back. It was filmed under a different name so McDonald's wouldn't track them down or something.

I'm not so sure about the last sentence, but there was a movie called
Fast Food Nation, but the more popular movie on a similar subject is
Super Size Me.
The book Fast Food Nation is disturbing. I really liked it, but it scares the hail outta' me.

I have heard a lot about this book, and I really want to read it. Good thing I already have given up McD's, BK, most of those other nasty stores.

Yes, the book is definitely both a must-read and must-own title.
Being a devoted Vegan and animal rights activist, the movie adaptation of the book is quite a feat, because it has marked one of the first times that a mainstream movie has included real-life footage of animals being slaughtered for meat.

I watched the movie for it and I never knew there is a book too.
The movie is sad and true. (with some disgusting parts too when that Mexican guy somehow fell in the meat machine thing)
