Knowledge is Power!
In an effort to combat the rapidly-growing problem of obesity in Mexican children, PepsiCo has created a handheld game that teaches kids about eating properly. The irony is that the American Beverage Association recently pointed the finger at videogames as a leading cause of childhood obesity.
