Morgan Spurlock takes a second bite of the fast food world
Associated PressNEW YORK — Last time out, documentary filmmaker Morgan Spurlock ate only fast food for a month. “I think the intention is to kind of give you a different perspective of the fast-food world — the fast-food commodity world — from a much more corporate point of view,” said Spurlock. We should be able to admit we were wrong.” Ironically, Spurlock’s film about fast-food chicken reemerges during a food feud over fried-chicken sandwiches, with the nation obsessed with a Popeyes version. “At the end of the day I do want to give you spinach, but I want it to taste like cotton candy and the more cotton candy-flavored spinach I can give you the more you’re going to eat.” His pop-up restaurant in Ohio has long since closed but Spurlock brought it to New York to coincide with the film’s release. “Right now, our best bet is for people to go and support ‘Holy Chicken’ because if it gets off and gets up and running we’re looking at a nationwide chain,” said his son, Zack Buttram.
