Concern

Sandy Szwarc at Junkfood Science has a very powerful post concerning childhood weight and food issues, discussing anorexia being found in children as young as five, the ways that the literal mind of young children can misunderstand well meant nutrition education, and the tendency of our culture to believe that low fat equals healthy. Among her concerns is the malnutrition that can occur when children become vegetarians.
