Throughout the previous two decades there has been a huge increase in obesity in the United States.
Many experts believe that the rise in obesity is a result of the changing food habits of the average American.
In a single research study it was proven that pro-social toys lead to pro-social behaviour and antisocial toys trigger antisocial conduct.
Based on this study we suggest that toys that emphasize unhealthy eating will result in adults who consume junk more food.
Here are 15 toys that most encourage eating unhealthy food.
1. Chocolate-Opoly
2. Smore Stick
3. Easy Bake Oven
4. Popcorn Basketball
5. Make Your Own Chocolate Kit
6. Pizza Cutter
7. Marshmallow Gun
8. Cheese Toy Grater
9. Thomas The Tank Engine Popcorn Popping Car
10. Girl Gourmet Candy Jewel Factory Oven
11. 1000 Piece Candy Jigsaw
12. Counting Cookies
13. Twisting Spaghetti Fork
14. Mix and Match Doughnuts
15. McDonald’s Drive-Thru Food Cart
Even though this is a repost from another site, I think it would be made your own post if you actually put comments under the photos. Otherwise it is just copying and pasting the photos and putting them in an entry. I don’t agree that all these would promote eating bad food and becoming obese. Pizza cutter? Thomas the train popcorn car?
Cmon…
Fair Enough.. Johnny. Will provide comments next time.
Thanks for your comment.
Some of these aren’t really toys, and many of them aren’t really for kids. Quite sad really, that if it ‘looks’ like it’s for kids it ‘must’ be for kids.
I’d love that grater.
