漢堡王方面表示,兒童餐碳酸飲料將被換成蘋果汁、脫脂牛奶或是低脂巧克力牛奶。
兒童健康組織“公共利益科學(xué)中心”(Center for Science in the Public Interest)支持漢堡王的作法。麥當(dāng)勞以前也曾采取類似作法。
部分原文報道如下:
Burger King is saying bye-bye to sugary sodas in kids' meals, a quiet change that follows similar moves by McDonald's and Wendy's earlier this year.
USA Today first reported the unannounced menu switch, which will involve replacing fountain drinks with fat-free milk, low-fat chocolate milk and apple juice in Burger King Kids Meals. Soft drinks will still be offered, but they'll be nixed from the Kids Meal menu.
The fast-food behemoths have reportedly stopped marketing sodas to kids due to pressure from consumer advocacy groups working to end childhood obesity. McDonald's, for instance, has partnered with The Alliance for a Healthy Generation, founded by the Clinton Foundation and the American Heart Association, NPR reports.
