Something that has been bugging me about this, lately -- I found out that there are soda and snack machines in schools. Apparently the large soda companies offer kickbacks to schools for being allowed to place their machines in the public schools.
My kids are only 4 and 2, and even now I struggle with keeping their sugar intake moderate. Since I am on the border of being diabetic, I have that additional concern that my kids could be at risk for it themselves.
Perhaps someday we will be suing food manufacturers the same way smokers were suing (and winning against) the tobacco purveyors in the last decade.
