Nowadays, many schools find it profitable to sell unhealthy food and sugary drink to students during lunch breaks Is this a positive or negative developmemt?

Many schools have become comfortable in selling carbonated drinks and unhealthy

food

to pupils in the bid to make extra income.In my

view

,

this

is a negative development,

This

essay will discuss the rationale for my

view

. One

reason

I am of the opinion that the sales of

junk

food

to students by schools is bad is because of the future health implications of

this

kind of diet. Most of these

food

Suggestion

foods

contain fat and sugar, which can lead to health implications like diabetes, obesity, high blood pressure in the future.

For

example

, a survey conducted in a

school

with

this

kind of menu shows that seventy percent of the students in that

school

are diabetic.

This

example

clarifies my

reason

. Another

reason

for my

view

is that

this

lead to pilfering by the

school

children. When schools decide to sell

junk

to children, most children would look for all means to buy these items including stealing.

For

example

, I had a friend in my primary

school

days who use to spend a lot of money buying

junk

food

and in no time she was paraded at the

school

assembly ground for stealing from home. She was reported by her mother fro stealing everyday from her purse.She did all these all in the bid to buy

junk

food

.

This

example

justifies my

view

. In conclusion, selling of unhealthy

food

and drink is a negative development. The

reason

for my opinion has been discussed in the essay.
