Santa Clara County, California became the first in the nation to ban toys from fast food kids’ meals high in calories, fat, salt and sugar (more than 485 calories).

County supervisor Ken Yeager said Tuesday that the ordinance “prevents restaurants from preying on children’s love of toys to peddle high-calorie, high-fat, high-sodium kids’ meals,” and would help fight childhood obesity.

Perhaps Jamie Oliver’s Food Revolution is working!

I’d rather see parents taking responsibility for their kids’ food rather than politicians passing laws, but whatever it takes!
