Eat this!

How fast food marketing gets you to buy junk (and how to fight back)

By Andrea Curtis

Fast food companies spend billions every year trying to get the attention of young people. You’re bombarded with marketing messages selling salt, sugar & fatty foods on TV, the internet, the street, even in school. Eat this! is an antidote to all that—a media and food literacy guide to decoding the big sell.

Free downloadable teachers’ guide

This new curriculum-based teachers’ guide is intended to support educators who want to combine media literacy and food literacy in their classroom. Lots of ideas, discussion questions and more! See this flyer for more about my books.
