Weight Loss

» Tracy Rose - Health advocate or Junk Food Ogre?

Thanks for your response! I agree for the most part. Parents do need to stand thier ground when it comes to making healthy choices for their kids, but some people (there was a special on 20/20 a while ago about marketing to children using characters they identify with) think it is completely wrong to put character faces on less-than-healthy snack choices. Given the choice of a plain box and one with a familiar face on it, kids will likely choose the character's box.

On the flip side, Shrek being an advocate for exercise could be a good thing. Maybe him and Donkey need to make a workout video! lol
