Everywhere we go, we are hit by ads to eat junk food. That flyer over there tempting us with a delicious hamburger. That woman on the TV biting into a juicy chicken leg. Our favorite teen pop-star chugging down a sugary drink. Advertisements for junk food surround us everywhere we turn in modern city life. It’s no wonder then, that advertisements have played a huge role in increasing the amount of junk food children eat every day.

Experts in children’s health say that junk food companies spend billions of dollars on ads for kids. These experts say that the only way to prevent kids from eating large amounts of unhealthy food is to strengthen laws that control advertisers. Some countries have already taken steps to protect children from such advertisements. For example, Sweden does not allow fast-food companies to make ads for children under 12.

Step-by-step explanation:

The above answer is the correct answer.

From the passage, we can see that it points to the fact that advertisements on flyovers, TV, by celebrities, etc. are playing a huge role in the increase of the amount of junk food that are being eaten everyday by children.

When those children see their favorite pop-stars consuming such junks on the adverts, they believe it to be credible and approved and then they go for it. The use of ethos by advertisers is on the increase.
