Marketing Food to Children
Dear Sciencegrrl,
The Center for
Science in the Public Interest (CSPI), with input from leading
experts in children’s health, has developed guidelines to
provide companies who manufacture, sell, market, or otherwise
promote food to children with criteria for marketing food to
children in a manner that does not undermine children’s
diets or harm their health.
You will find the
“Guidelines for Responsible Food Marketing to
Children” at: http://cspinet.org/marketingguidelines.pdf
To learn how you
can use the Guidelines to make changes in your community, click
