We ate a lot as kids in the 60s and 70s, but I don't think we ate as much junk food. I know my Grandma made sure I had three square meals in me every day, the old school stuff, you know: bacon and eggs, or oatmeal, soup & sandwiches, & meat, potatoes and beans, and all three served with whole milk straight from our own cows.

Now, she DID make cookies, and doughnuts, and fresh bread, and I did get candy bars from the store pretty regularly (which did my teeth no good) but kids today (I'm a teacher) are wolfing down potato chips and soda and fast food for breakfast, snack, lunch, snack again... I don't know when or if they ever eat real food.

When I have early bus duty little kids get off w/ suckers, gum & eating hot cheetohs. (Before I corrected it it said they were eating hot cheetahs!). Then they give them frosted portrays & chocolate milk. Gag!
