    As a child I was forbidden from eating sweetened breakfast cereal as well as drinking cola (including diet. A mum of one of my friends told my mum not to give my friend diet drinks as they contain ingredients that could trigger her asthma). I was also not allowed to to chew gum, certain sweets or to have crisps in my packed lunch everyday.

    A ban on advertising isn't really a significant part of the solution. School kids still started smoking cigarettes after they were banned from TV advertising, and vaping is now rife among young teens despite never being advertised. It's not like kids will suddenly not know what McDonalds is, just because they don't see it on TV.

      When I was a youngster, you got reward points for buying certain brands of cigarettes to save up to trade for other products. Can't believe that used to be a thing. There is a reason people still smoke, tobacco is more addictive than a lot of class A drugs. And yet the government makes billions in tax from smokers. That hypocrisy needs to end.

    I personally don't think having less junk food TV ads is a bad thing, but I don't think it'll make a big difference. Supermarkets promoting healthy snacks by the checkouts, for instance, is an effective solution to encourage consumers to buy better. But I do think, as you've rightly said, if you want to buy a bottle of Coke or a chocolate bar, nothing is going to stop you buying that. And take the current Cadbury ad as an example - a young girl buys a bar of chocolate for her mum as a present and puts all her valuable toys on the counter to buy it... that implies to me that its a special buy, something considered to be a gift or a treat. So I think it's not what what you do and don't advertise, it's HOW.

    The time where stopping junk food advertising to children was in the 1980s, when for example during children's ITV, McDonalds had content posing as children's TV programmes themselves, such as chase scenes with the Hamburglar etc. All that went out years ago as McDonalds changed their image.
