Junk food advert code launched

Clearly the solution.

"A global campaign aimed at reducing the marketing of unhealthy food to children has been launched.

More than 50 consumer groups are backing a voluntary code of practice which includes tight restrictions on television and internet advertising.

It also calls for a ban on unhealthy food promotion in schools and an end to the use of celebrities and cartoon characters....

World Health Organization figures suggest that up to 177m children worldwide are threatened by obesity-related diseases, and it is predicted that 2.3 billion people over 15 years old will be overweight by 2015."

It has been known for years that children have been spending their hard-earned money on these foods.

Obviously, the products and the product manufacturers are the ones to blame since parents have no control over the self-sufficient, emancipated minors with whom they share a residence or the food items allowed in their homes.

Congrats.

Brilliant.
