Junk Foods: A Transnational History of Childhood, Diet, and Health in Post-War Europe
This Wellcome-funded research project investigates how branded snacks, soft drinks, and fast food became embedded in children's everyday lives across post-war Europe. Through historical research and digital ethnography, the project explores changing ideas about childhood diet, health, consumer culture, and the meaning of "junk food" across different countries and generations.
