food for thought
This event is surely a fun way to celebrate awareness of eating healthy and sustainably. Fast foods, sadly are the common stop for people to eat foods but that don't really give them the safety and healthy foods that should be offered to them.And besides, the kids are also exposed to exploitation once they have been used to the pleasure of eating fast foods.In a court action filed on Wednesday, California mother Parham is suing McDonald’s. The Center for Science within the Public Interest is supporting this court action, which claims that McDonald's is unfairly marketing their Happy Meals to children. The legal action, which may become a class-action, pits adult responsibility against government regulation.
