Any ideas about junk foods? Nowadays the kids are getting curious about what they see in the food stores and supermarkets. I know that junk foods are not good for our body. Anybody here knows some of the reasons why, and how we can avoid the children to consume such unhealthy foods?

Thanks for your response. Do you think it is ok to give the kids a little amount of junk foods?

@aeadams24 I think kids should have some for a special occasion or treat but not very often.

I don't eat junk food. I'm glad that I grew up before it became popular. I have no urge to eat it.

Thanks for sharing. I also don't like junk foods. It gave me stomach ache when I was a kid.

The best thing is not to buy junk foods from the supermarket.

Agree. Or divert their attention to something else while in the supermarket..
