Sugar candy



Swedish people eat a lot of sugar candy. Now a majority of parents want at least to get rid of it in schools. No more Coca-Cola or candy and more exercise instead.

Today's parents don't have enough control over what kids eat according to a large survey done in Sweden.

1000 parents have been asked what they think about kids eating habits and most of them feel that kids today too easily can find and buy unhealthy foods. Most of them think the consumption of sugars are too high.

Dentist, doctors and nurses now wants the politicians to do something about it. We need more information on eating habits and physical activity they say.

Well, I guess the typical Swedish kids today spend more and more time in front of a computer and probably the same time eating snacks and candy.

I think we need to come up with something really new to break these bad habits.
