I really hate it when you see babies-not even toddlers-sitting in their pram--with food like G****s sausage rolls or pies!
I think it's terrible that people will leave babies-as good as unattended-with dangerous flaky food...apart from the fact of the amount of calories/fat that re in these foods---remember the baby that died after being fed readybrek-because of the salt content.
People should be a lot more careful.
I think people tend to be too lazy when it comes to healthy eating-I was a fussy eater-but the foods I was offered where always healthy-and it's so easy to make healthy versions of everything

Hear, hear!
Something that really apalled me was one of McDonald's commercials on Swedish TV, where an infant is fed French fries and starts singing...
1) My first thought was - they're teaching a baby to eat junk food?
2) My second thought was - aha, so that's why there are so many people with a serious weight problem in the US - if that commercial has anything to do with reality (and McDonald's is an American company) then it's no wonder if you're taught to eat junk food from early childhood...

very true!
a thought...
why on earth do they have high-chairs in fastfood shops?
so babies can be given their milk?
NO!
so some people can dump junk in front of the kid and leave 'em to it!
...those things should carry a health warning!
