It's unfortunate the way this story is portrayed, at least the way I first saw it on CNN. It's not like the documentary Super Size Me where Morgan Spurlock only eats McDonald's food as his entire diet for a month. This guy is not stuffing his face with Twinkies (he eats like 5 a day spaced out over the day), nor are they his only source of daily nutrition.

Unfortunately, I think the message that undiscerning people get from the story is that it's perfectly OK and healthy to eat mostly junk/snack food and to just eat as much of it as you want. The food giants must be loving this story.
