Popular Unhealthy Kid’s Snacks
As George Bernard Shaw says, “there’s no sincere love than the love of food.” However, not all foods are healthy to consume, especially for young children who are picky eaters. Among the most unhealthy snacks for kids, are: 1. Lunch combo packs One of the most popular lunch combo packs is Lunchables. Lunchables can range from simple meat, cheese and crackers to pizzas, tacos and pancakes. Yet, as amazing as this sounds these lunch packs do not provide the nutritional value that a child needs. A single Lunchable contains high amounts of sugar, salt and saturated fat. In addition, this meal contains hormonal soy protein and lacks vitamin c. The creator of Lunchables, Bob Drane, does not feed this unhealthy meal to his own kids because of what it contains. 2. Veggie chips Just the name “veggie chips” can make someone consider these chips a healthy alternative to potato chips. In reality, the nutritional value sought in these snacks are lost when processed. The chips not only lack nutrients, but contain no protein or fiber. The only reason that a veggie chip is considered a better alternative to potato chips is because of the lack of calories. The calories come from the oil when fried.
