With more than one fourth of advertising on daytime and prime time television devoted to foods and beverages and continuing questions about the role television plays in obesity, a study in the November/December issue of the Journal of Nutrition Education and Behavior examines how food advertising aimed at children might be a large contributor to the problem."Don't blame the ads.

Their folks do.
Absent the parents and their moolah, foodstuffs would not be purchased.
