Yes. Obesity is a growing problem that we must tackle (mixed feelings about Sugar Tax) but we should be able to have our cake and eat it, if you'll pardon the puns :u:


Haha! But as in 1 or 2 sweets won't do much harm to kids.
It is all about portions. It is not like any of these kids have a quarter of the cake or the sweets. Most people actually get obese because they are not allowed to have a lit bit of this food and so when they get it, they gorge on it hence the weight gain. It is really stupid. Probably a school that promises that all its students are 'as mentally and physically fit as possible'. Watch in 2019, these kids will be overweight because they gorged on sweets and cake because they were never given 'reasonable' portions.
