Junk food adverts on television really do make children want to eat unhealthily, researchers have found.
Children aged six to 13 who were shown commercials for high fat and high carbohydrate foods were more likely to pick meals that were bad for them.
The effect was especially pronounced in those who watched a lot of TV - with these children in particular wanting burgers and fries instead of a salad.
