In the largest study of TV ads for kids the Kaiser Family Foundation no ads for good stuff such as veggies and fruits.
40% of the commercials were for candy, snacks and fast food.
The food ads were for:
Candy and snacks – 34%
Cereal – 29%
Fast food – 10%
Beverages – 10%
Dairy – 4%
Prepared food – 4%
Bread, pastries, dine-out restaurant – 9%
Rather like the cigarette industry… get ‘em young.
