Fast Food Nation Chapter 2 Questions

Discuss the fast food industry's marketing to children and explore the ethics of targeting children, especially as they relate to advertising in schools. To thoroughly address this prompt your response will need to be at least a paragraph long.

I honestly think that the way fast food buisnesses use very good methods to market their products to children because they use strategy and technique that they know for sure will rill in children. They market to children by advertising the toys they put in happy meals and by the advertisements they put on tv with the little cartoons. Most parents/guardians work all day so at the end of the day when their children wants fast foods of course parents are going to feed in and buy it because they are tired from working and being busy throughout the day.
