A QUICK LOOK AT HOW SOME COUNTRIES ADVERTISE FOOD TO KIDS

Ireland: All television commercials for fast food and candy are banned.

Sweden/Norway/Austria/Luxembourg: All television advertising to children is

banned.

Belgium/France/Portugal/Vietnam: All marketing is banned in schools.

United States: Spending more per child than any other nation in the world, the

U.S. plugs $15 billion per year into marketing food to kids, which is more than

what it would cost to provide health insurance for all uninsured children.

Kick over the wall 'cause government's to fall

How can you refuse it?

Let fury have the hour, anger can be power

D'you know that you can use it?

Advertising to children is rife in the UK too. The government has said it

would like it to be reduced, which is a little of nothing really.

'pester power' is rife in the UK, and despite the government half-

heartedly saying they want to do something about advertising aimed at

children, they want every generation to become good consumers, and

they like to start them as young as possible.
