This article by Vandana Prasad and Peter Rohloff in BMJ Paediatrics Open discusses the ongoing issue of food poverty among children worldwide, exacerbated by conflicts, economic instability, and inequitable food distribution. The authors emphasize that beyond hunger, nutritional quality is poor even for children in peaceful areas. They critique the overemphasis on individual responsibility for food security and call for systemic changes to address underlying inequities, unhealthy food marketing, and the global reliance on ultra-processed foods.
