Study: American Kids Get 12% of Their Total Calories From Fast Food

Well this is concerning. The National Center for Health Statistics has released the findings of new research that shows that kids in America get a substantial amount of their total caloric intake from fast food meals. And nearly a third of all children in the country eat fast food every single day. Unsurprisingly, the research has linked high fast food consumption to poor overall nutrition. No wonder a friendly clown man is used to sell cheeseburgers.
