    Honestly kids won’t understand the damage of junk food until they get older and it’s too late, and the industry knows that.

      Kids are also still developing their pallettes. What they eat while they grow completely effects what foods they will desire and associate eating habits with when they grow older. Many junk foods share ingredients and flavours compared to a wider variety of whole foods.
