After "a major government-commissioned study found advertising contributes to childhood obesity" and two bills before Congress "proposed regulation of children's advertising," Kraft, "the nation's biggest food company," knew it "risked being depicted as a corporate villain." So, in January, the company "announced it would quit advertising certain products to kids under 12." While some criticized Kraft's continued use of cartoons and questioned whether the company should be able to decide "what's healthy and what isn't," policymakers praised Kraft. Kraft's strategy was inspired by "its sister company, Philip Morris [3]." By "taking control of the discussion [4] about marketing to children," Kraft hopes to "avoid Philip Morris's initial mistakes." Kraft's Michael Mudd explained, "If the tobacco industry [5] could go back 20 or 30 years, reform their marketing, disarm their critics, and sacrifice a couple of hundred million in profits, knowing what they know today, don't you think they'd take that deal in a heartbeat?"
