Many of these animated and live-action movies are regretful of "glamorizing" unhealthy eating and inactivity, while at the same time condemning obesity, according to study corresponding creator Dr Eliana Perrin, an associate professor of pediatrics at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill School of Medicine. She and her colleagues analyzed 20 top-grossing G- and PG-rated movies from 2006 to 2010.

Clips from each motion picture were examined for their depictions of eating, true activity and obesity. The findings show that many approved children's movies "present a mixed message to children: promoting infirm behaviors while stigmatizing the behaviors' possible effects," the researchers said.
