INGREDIENTS OF THE DAY: Tallow, Hydrogenated Tallow, Magnesium Stearate,
This episode is about kids and junk food. The content of the program will consist of 3 parts: (1) kid’s health in America and the world; (2) marketing bad food to kids; and (3) examining 5 commercial products that target kids as consumers. Along the way, you’ll learn about the Convention on the Rights of the Child … a Bill of Rights for kids. Of course, this episode would not be complete without the usual, brain-numbing analyses of food ingredients in processed foods. So foodeaters, I think you’ll find this information interesting. Even I was surprised at some of the items I dug up during the research for the show.
