Line 23:
* [[Deep-Fried Whatever]]: In an extra feature on the DVD release, Spurlock visits a fish and chip shop that also experiments with deep-frying candy bars. Since Morgan is still on his McDonald's-only diet while they visit, he defers to his cameraman.
* [[Do Not Do This Cool Thing]]: Watching this film can give you a serious craving for your favorite McDonald's menu item, though other parts of the film, such as Spurlock vomiting a Super-Sized meal out of his car door, might spoil your appetite.
* [[Documentary of Lies]]: Even leaving aside the arguable point of it being McDonalds' fault that people choose to eat too much of their food and get fat, various doctors and nutritionists have pointed out that the weight gain and health effects Spurlock claims to have experienced are simply not possible from what and how much he was eating. The math just doesn't add up, and the "doctor" and Spurlock's nutritionist "wife" featured in the "documentary" are clearly in on the falsification.
* [[Fan Boy]]: Spurlock visits a Big Mac fanboy who achieved notoriety for eating at least one Big Mac a day for well over a decade. In contrast to the film's message, it shows that the fanboy is actually in perfect health.
* [[Last Supper Steal]]: One segment is a painting that shows grotesque caricatures of various fast food mascots set up like "The Last Supper".
