#35: Child Obesity

I have just worked out why child obesity is on the increase. Today I went to the local swim pool and I could not believe what they were selling. Now in my day after going for a swim you could get some “Space Riders” or a “Wham Bar” out of the vending machine, how things have changed. Sitting next to the contraption that works out your weight, height, body mass index, and Percentage of body fat, is a machine that sells microwave chips and pizza. What’s next an ice cream van in the play ground or a cycle through KFC in the park.
