Ep# 198: Movies Contain Junk Food
Manage episode 442007625 series 2948843
In this episode, Dr. Kashey talks about a scientific study by researchers at Stanford University that analyzed the representation of food and drinks in popular movies. The study found that the on-screen diets portrayed in these movies vastly differed from the USDA nutrition guidelines, featuring low-fiber, high-sodium, and an abundance of unhealthy treats, such as candies, chips, desserts, and alcoholic beverages. Dr. Kashey highlights that many of these movies were rated PG-13 or lower, indicating that children were exposed to these unrealistic dietary representations. Dr. Kashey questions the influence of these depictions on people's eating habits, suggesting that while it may normalize and encourage the consumption of unhealthy foods shown in movies, it does not necessarily lead individuals to adopt an overall "wacky diet of candy and cheese curls." He argues that if movies portrayed healthier eating habits, people would likely lose interest and seek content that aligns with their behaviors.
