It's not really fast food that's terrible. It's making terrible choices with fast food.
It's literally in the name: "Super Size Me". Every time anyone at McDonald's asked him if he wanted a size increase, he said yes. If you force yourself to constantly only eat particularly bad fast food and the maximum ammount possible, no shit you get obese.
I ate fast food almost exclusively for a whole year, and I did gain some weight, but nothing fucking dangerous like he did. I tried to eat normally, and didn't make 50% of my diet sugary drinks.
I guess even that should be obvious. I used to walk 10 to 12 miles a day and still lost weight while eating poorly. But still it should be obvious that fast food isn’t good for you in excess. I remember when it came out some people attacked McDonalds as if they forced people to make bad choices
The 2008 documentary Fat Head, which is a rebuttal to the documentary 2004 Super Size Me, talks about the US government funding fake food science.
It is worth a watch, and worth showing to those who have been fooled by fake food science.

I remember being so confused why Super Size Me was s given so much praise. Eating lots of fast food is unhealthy. Shocker
