I don't think that the toy in kid's meal is the link to unhealthy eating and childhood/adult obesity. I feel there are many factors involved in the reason for obesity, but I don't believe that the banning of toys in kid's meals is the answer. I feel that would be an overstepping of the government to act as the "fast food police." I think the public could create a demand for healthier kid's meal from these businesses if it was truly something that the public wanted. If the public didn't purchase these meals, then the companies would look to create other healthier meals that the public demanded. I feel that kid's learning of healthy eating and lifestyle choices is their parent's responsibility. Unfortunately, a lot of parents model poor behaviors for their children. I don't think that you can expect kids to do something that the parents won't do.
