★★★ · MOAR BUTTER PLEEZ · Spuzz · 2012-06-12

Hideous color film about nutrition. Oh, the advice is there, it's just that the color on this film just makes everyone look strange and the food even more stranger. It doesn't help that the every scene have backdrops of the most godawful wallpaper ever. The film does give good advice on nutrition, and to add butter on everything, (choloesterol be damned!) but all in all, not a very pleasant film to watch.
