Will some people in this thread shut up? Of course kids are going to say that things like Oreos and Mcdonalds are in their favorite brands, it doesn't make them all overweight or obese. I mean, what do you expect them to say? V8 Juice? Dole? Come on.

Nike, Addidas, Ferrari ffs, you know... something worthwhile or at least not something that will not get people fat. Also come on, over half the nation is obese, obviously there is a problem, can you shut up with denying problems and just see that there is a problem that starts off when people are young?

So wait, in a list of famous videogame producers, TV channels, and snacks, you really expect kids to list shoe or car brands? And by the way, before you go about spouting statistics, try looking them up. Please, over half the nation is obese? Don't give me that crap. I won't deny there is a problem, but kids would have listed McDonalds and oreos among their favorite brands whether you had taken this now, or decades ago. Kids will always list unhealthy stuff as their favorite things, and I'm just sick of everyone in this thread complaining because kids like Oreos and McDonalds. Nothing new.

So shut up and don't respond to me anymore if you don't have anything worthwhile to say.

I'm surprised kids don't like Milky Way.. I used to love those things.

I'm also surprised that Nick is above Cartoon Network.

Imformative list though.

Probably because Cartoon Network has become complete shit.

I have not had access to Cartoon Network for the past few years. Do tell.

Remember when Cartoon Network had Ed, Edd, n' Eddy, the Toonami lineup, Samurai Jack (of course), and a series of cartoon classics such as Tom and Jerry?

Not anymore!

I can't even describe some of the stuff that's on Cartoon Network these days. I've given up watching it.

What is on Cartoon Network nowadays? No more X-Men, Ed Edd and Eddy and Tom and Jerry?

Stoked, Total Drama Action, Chowder, Flapjack, 6teen, Ben 10: Alien Force, The Outsiders, Destroy Build Destroy, Bobby says, etc.

I'm sorry elt me rephrase. Near 2/3rd the population is overweight, half of those is obese:

Obviosuly there is a problem, you are the only who doesn't have anythign worthwhile to say here. Most of the people are fat and you are defending mcdonalds and oreos selling their shitty product to kids? I'm quite speechless.

I wonder if McD, oreos, doritos and other such brand are anywhere near as influential in Europe.

The only one of those I've ever watched is Ben 10. And it was the worst 30 minutes of a cartoon I have ever seen in my life.

Nickelodeon was better back in the day, too. Keenan and Kel is legendary.

As told by Ginger.

I never really liked Doug, but the rest were awesome (yes, even As Told by Ginger. Brilliant show). Brothers Garcia, too.

Does Cartoon Network still have Billy and Mandy, though? One of the best cartoons of all time.

Brothers Garcia wasn't my thing but I'll admit, it has its own charm.

As for Billy and Mandy, it airs once in a blue moon.

Thanks, now you actually have some statistics to back up your pointless arguments.

I never argued that obesity isn't a problem, just that people complaining because kids like McDonalds and Oreos is really pointless. Kids will always like eating the things that are worst for them the most. It's how kids are. Now, if you can find the part where I was defending the McDonalds and Oreos brands being sold to children, I'd love to see it. If not, you might want to try Hooked on Phonics to help you with reading comprehension. I hear it's real popular with the kids.

There's to much junk food...children doesn't like sushi?

Oh well, with a Wii they can excercise away those extra kilos.
