Chew On This Episode 3: How is Big Food stalking our children?


Every day, children are exposed to unhealthy food marketing where they live, where they learn and play, but also during major sporting events like the World Cup and Olympics. This can be seen on television, in and around their schools, when they play games online and also on social media.

This episode looks at the need to protect children from…

All criminals will want to change the law.

@endofunk2174

WHO is part of the problem.

@cy-villian

Time to co-parent with the WHO because we are not able to raise own children because both parents (or likely one parent) are at work … Go Humans …

@selbysibongeseni5888

@rasheedajamal381

Lots of rubbish ingredients in food stuff .Food manufacturers don't care .It's money making.

@rasheedajamal381

@africanhistory

They know alcohol is destroying the poorest in society, socially and economically. They saw the data from COVID-19 at how restriction to alcohol helped. But money first means alcohol, the deadliest drug on Earth, is legal. So this conversation, if we are honest, has a very wide reach. But are we prepared to have that conversation? NO!

@africanhistory

if the arguments presented are valid, then they are valid way beyond foods. But once big money is involved you can forget about a revolution. So many sectors of our lives have been demonstrated to be poor, especially what they call education and parenting. Why not fix them? Because it cost too much, or gets in the way of profits. At my son's school they TEACH them about unhealthy foods and then at break SELL THEM the same unhealthy foods. This is so called education. Why not transform the food? When 1/2 the children (especially of certain races) are prone to morbid obesity?

@johnfennel3207

what a pot snot!!! If you are just mentioning the ''world heath organisation'', it makes anyone cringes!! They are the evil that we don't need and want in our lives!!

@willowsilver11

Fresh food is expensive. Children should not have access to TilTok. Banning advertising while cereal is cheaper than eggs and fruit, you will fail.

@siwekhazi4182

I'm.glad watch this my daughter is 10 years old .

@kelvinjasi

Thank you for this informative video and important issue regarding health for children. It touched me because I was diagnosed with sugar diabetes at 26. I am now free of sugar diabetes anyway. I am now so particular about nutrition and wellness. In his video, you guys nailed it! Keep up the good work. Thank you once again.

@Nico101.....

HEYYYYYY WHAT are you talking about it's not advertising!!!!!!!!!!!!!! its the chemicals that is in the food that is killing and making our kids FAT and unhealthy. Just take a look at almost any food on the racks ,at all the chemicals in them. And people wanting to control the food market!!! Wanting to inject our food will all kinds of hormones and and….. The first thing you must do is get outsiders out of our food supply like MR B.G Have you seen the stuff he is planning to do? Number 2 Get margerien of the counter its 1 molecule away from plastic!!! Look it up PLZ. Do you want me to carry on!!!!!!!!!!!!

@lionheart1330

The WHO is the new World Government. It can never be trusted. It's mission to destroy mankind through global genocide. Health is used as a fraudulent means to gain access to every individual. Run.

@GMakgathoSA

When there's hunger, you show blacks as example, now in obesity you still show blacks as example, no whites that are obese? What did blacks do?

@ntru2kosana

Like haalal food y shops have to shown haalal y they just keep it from their self because there nothing special about as long the food is health ND if there are things you don't like you can choose yourself not to buy it like they disrespecting other people culture or undermining it because they have money to operating the market now they must write haalal food that make me sick

@carlgevers2557

The above link is an anti big food song by a guy called Jesse Welles – perfect for yr campaign

@carlgevers2557

The average modern child can recognise over 1000 corporate logos but cannot name 10 common plants that grow in their local ecosystem

@zandileportia2189

Just as society took a stand against tobacco ads, we need to do the same with food ads that target our kids.

@samkemsani

As a new mom this is extremely worrying. In this digital age it is extremely difficult navigating what children are exposed to 24/7. We can only hope that this information reaches all parties involved including food and beverage industry so we can all work together to rectify these problem.
