“Meat, most people don’t care and don’t want to know where it came from, they just want to eat it. Fry it up, put it on a plate and chew it up. “Fast Food Nation,” based on Eric Schlosser’s best-selling novel, happens to be a thought provoking, fictionalized movie about the beef people eat. However, it will leave a bad taste in its audiences’ mouths.

Mickey’s Burger’s headquarters sends Don Anderson (Greg Kinnear) to its meat processing plant because, well, there’s sh*t in the meat. He heads to the plant to make sure that the plant’s employees are doing their jobs correctly, and to learn why there would be fecal matter in the burgers. “
