In June, Kellogg announced new guidelines for marketing to children and won praise from the people who make health policies. The Center for Science in the Public Interest,dropped a lawsuit against Kellogg after this announcement. But by the end of the month, Kellogg had introduced another product aimed at children..Froot Loops Cereal Straws, which sweetens the milk children drink as it passes through the straw, in order to get the same effect as the sweetened milk left at the bottom of a bowl of Fruit Loops.

No one, that's the problems. The government has passed down the responsibility to the good industry and the food industry doesn't care.
