It's sickening: junk food manufacturers and marketers have come up with a new report highlighting tactics for selling more junk food to children. With this, junk food companies and soft drink manufacturers demonstrate a complete lack of business ethics: as long as they can make greater profits, it doesn't matter who they harm.
While they're making money, of course, they're priming these children for a life of suffering with obesity, diabetes and other chronic diseases caused by the metabolic disruptors found in their food and beverage products.
This is why all snack food and soft drink vending machines should be banned from public schools.
