ABOUT ㅣ BIG CHICKEN: A FAST FOOD CONSPIRACY
Big Chicken: A Fast Food Conspiracy is produced by the award-winning production company Mindhouse (Louis Theroux: Inside the Manosphere) and follows Mo Gilligan in his first documentary for Netflix as he investigates our global fried chicken obsession - and the hidden costs behind our cravings.
A self-proclaimed lover of the food, Mo puts his body to the test in a bold experiment by eating fried chicken 3 times a day for 28 days straight.
Over the course of the month, he embarks on an eye-opening journey from South London to the United States to reveal the historical origins of fried chicken and the social, economic and industrial forces driving our mass consumption of it - from fast-food chains to large-scale farming - and the impact on our health, our planet and the way we eat.
As a Black British comedian, Mo also seeks to reframe perceptions of the dish by confronting negative stereotypes associated with it, examining how it's been culturally appropriated and advertised in today's market.
