the doge has the answer

The correct answer is A. Companies use film stars, like Sherk, or toys to sell food.

A detail is considered to be a supporting detail if it helps the author explain one point or idea. In the case of the idea "Food companies create advertisements that appeal to kids" this is better supported by option A. This is because using film characters, for example, Sherk, or including toys to sell food, makes kids to be attracted to a specific product and therefore motivates them to request this product to their parents. An example of this is the use of toys as part of the Happy Meal because this increases the preference of kids for this product as they want to collect the toys. Moreover, in most cases, each of the toys represents a trendy movie character.

The correct answer is A. Companies use film stars, like Sherk, or toys to sell food.
