Ultra Size Me?

Many customers have asked if Oil Change -There’s a Killer in your Food! will be like the famous documentary Super Size Me. The only things the two movies have in common is a similar Evil Corporate Clown and interviews with the the public about food ingredients. Super Size actually didn’t delve into the ingredients aspect of food much. So we guess that makes these doc films about 1% similar. So to summarize, no one is going on a 30 day fast food diet in Oil Change. It’s a scary movie but not in that way. 

Meet the Characters of Oil Change

The film has many colorful and interesting characters that help summarize and dig into the processed ingredients and politics of the food  industry. First up is Fat Sam, he symbolizes the lazy indifference the government plays in the processed food game. It’s a business after all and food manufactures have made sure to grease the right palms sometimes to make the government look the other way and or delay legislation that could affect thier bottom line.

Fat Chance: Fructose 2.0

Another great speech from Dr. Robert Lustig He argues that sugar and processed foods are driving the obesity epidemic, which in turn affects our endocrine system.

Sugar Coated Trailer

Another great movie about the food industry, this time focusing on the very addictive food additive sugar. We are surprised more people don't even know this documentary exists, it's a great film. It's only available on Vimeo for some reason. Also you can watch it if you have a membership to the Diet Doctor website. Well worth renting or buying if you want to know more about that sweet treat you might be thinking about stuffing in your face.

Naughty Dough Boys!

One of the many processed food ingredients that we will be discussing in Oil Change - There's a Killer in Your Food is Trans Fats. This artery clogging and heart attack inducing ingredient is now illegal to use in food in the United States. Yet, even in 2020 you can still find it being used be food developers and its still on store shelves. We believe they are still taking advantage of an old loophole in the law that allows it to be used if its less than 0.5 per serving. The Pillsbury Dough Boy takes full advantage of this when he sells you Trans Fat laden biscuits. Eating these once in a blue moon hopefully will not impact your health. But if you make this a daily breakfast treat sooner or later it will catch up to you. Here's the list of ingredients and a link directly to the product.

Enriched Flour Bleached (wheat flour, niacin, ferrous sulfate, thiamin mononitrate, riboflavin, folic acid), Water, Soybean and Palm Oil, Sugar, Baking Powder (sodium acid pyrophosphate, baking soda, sodium aluminum phosphate), Hydrogenated Palm Oil.

Just in case you didn't know the "Partially Hydrogenated Soybean Oil" is the ingredient that contains Trans Fat. This product also contains aluminum which is also not recommended to eat on a regular bases since it can impact your health.
