Netherlands Nutrition Centre YouTube video shows the obesogenic eating environment from a child's perspective

The video illustrates what foods a child is exposed to, how easily available and accessible high fat and sugar foods are throughout the day, and how other people encourage and enable children to eat almost anytime and anywhere.
