Video: Yesterday, the Oakland-based Prevention Institute released it's new 2- minute, everything-you-need-to- know video: We're Not Buying It: Stop Junk Food Marketing to Kids. Use it.

Commentary: David Britt and Lori Dorfman have a terrific editorial in The Hill today on why everyone needs to support the government's proposed voluntary nutrition standards for food marketing to kids.
