From USA today.
"A Gallup poll finds that many teens admit eating "a great deal or some junk food in a typical week," and they say they
buy "junk food and soda" from vending machines at school."
Well, I am certainly shocked by this study. I don't know about you guys, but when I was a teen I only ate carrot sticks
and celery and apples. Of course, it was easy, what with there being a carrot stick/celery/apple vending machine in practically
every hallway at school. Of course, I only had to buy my healthy snacks on days when Mom was too busy to pick the organic
fruits and vegetables out of our neighborhood communal garden. It was generally on Thursdays when she was volunteering down
at Greenpeace. Kids these days. I tell ya'.
