Selling junk food at school isn’t a good idea, especially when kids spend most of their day in school. schools are not promoting a healthy lifestyle for kids by having vending machines full of junk food in them. Many Schools should band bending machines at their schools and promote kids to living healthy by talking to them about the risks they face if they keep eating so much junk food. School should be a safe place and also a healthy one where children are safe and healthy as well.

Most advertising companies use cartoons to target kids. Having favorite cartoons such as spongebob,dora the explorer and other nickelodeon or Disney cartoons placed on all these junk food lead children to think they are healthy or good because their favorite character is placed on it .Some countries have banned advertising and marketing food products to children even in public schools.
