Abstract : In both developed and developing nations, there has been a significant surge in the promotion of foods rich in fat, sugar, and salt, with a considerable focus on targeting adolescents. Consequently, there has been a rapid and concerning rise in the prevalence of childhood obesity. As concerns about this emerging pandemic intensify, efforts to modify consumer behavior are also gaining attention.
