from “Human Events”...”Under the rubric of combating childhood obesity, The Federal Trade Commission, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Food and Drug Administration and the U.S. Department of Agriculture are ordering food producers to retool the amount of sugar, sodium, and fats in their products, particularly those marketed to children. If not, come 2016, the violating manufacturers are forbidden from advertising on television, in video games, or in any other venue that children are drawn to”.

Funny but when my kids were young, they'd BEG for me to stop at whatever fast food place had the toy they wanted. Supposedly some of the toys were "collectibles" or so my kids told me (eyes rolling).

Is Jack-in-the-Box going to improve the quality of their food items (without raising their prices) now that they don't have to pay for crappy Chinese toys? We all know the answer to that one!
