Yep, I do. And I think the companies that make and promote junk food should be required to subsidise medical costs for treatment of obesity, adult onset diabetes, and other diet related illnesses.

The ones who are making up these stupid rules are the ones who should be banned. Soon they will allow us to smile only during specific times or else we'll get a ticket! As for the kids, they were born with parents who are the ones to take care of that matter. Does anyone remember the movie Falling Down with Michael Douglas? God did I like the part in the fast food...

Kids get it from their parents. If the parents buy junk food or kids see parents eating junk food they are much more likely to do it too, which isn't the junk food companie's problem. For those of us who enjoy these things in moderation, it wouldn't be fair to take it away completely.

Absoloutely NOT! Think of kids and their RIGHTS! While junk food is bad for you it is a CHOICE. This is a free country for God's sake! Health is a choice, and while it's not the wiset some people decide not to be healthy but thats their RIGHT. So stop being a bigot, thank you.

Junk food should b given with limit. Like a alcohol drink with license holder only in limited quantity in gulf & Dubai.
It will stiop the parents from addicting their kids with junk food.
Nothin rong in eatin just once a while for fun. but not for every meal.

Why should my kids be punished because other kids don't listen to their parents? I don't have a problem with my kids eating junk food and they're perfectly healthy.

The logical end to your proposal is to have the government take away all kids from their parents at birth and raise them in a "government approved manner."

There is always going to be junk food. Think of human nature. If you gave your children "healthy food" they would most likely put salt, sugar or cheese on it. The best thing to do is to try to teach them good eating habits and explain to them the benefits.

Yes, we could all benefit.

It would be about as successful as this war on drugs we have going on in this country.

Politicians would love it. Ho Ho's could cost more than gas and they would have more campaign $$$.

Maybe if junk food wasn't so cheap it would get eaten less, then again, maybe not.

You folks are the banningest bunch. I realize that many of you are Democrats and love big government and micro managing of people private lives, but , come on. Even you Libs must admit that sometimes , at least, people have to take responsibility for their own actions, or lack thereof.
