Four women in the United States sued the company, Ferrero U.S.A., Inc., because they said it made misleading claims about the product. Television commercials for Nutella describe it as part of a balanced breakfast, along with toast, milk and fruit.

The women said they bought Nutella because they believed it was a healthy food to give their families. Then they found out that the spread contains large amounts of sugar and fat. Eating too much fat and sugar can contribute to obesity – being overweight -- which is not good for your health.

Super Bowl Commercials Don’t Disappoint https://teachingkidsnews.com/2012/02/07/super-bowl-commercials-dont-disappoint/ Wed, 08 Feb 2012 03:00:30 +0000 https://teachingkidsnews.com/?p=5244 Many people like to fast-forward through commercials on TV.

However, there is one time when many people want to watch the commercials. And that's during the Super Bowl football game.

The Super Bowl was played last Sunday.

It has become a tradition that the commercials shown during the Super Bowl are particularly interesting to watch. Many of them are funny.

For instance, in a Volkswagen ad, a dog sees a Volkswagen go by his house. He wants to chase it, but he's too fat to fit through the doggie door.

So he starts exercising himself to get in shape.

He chases his own tennis ball, and he swims laps in a pool.

Eventually, he is able to fit through the doggie door and chase the car.
