Story: The Curse of Junk Food is a game designed to show the importance of having a healthy diet. The storyline begins with the player playing the role of the Child. The Child loves to eat junk food, but as the son of the Coach, you are not supposed to be eating junk food. You are then examined by the Health Organization Government, which is the lead government party that rules your world. Because you are not healthy, you are sent to the Grease Pit, which is where people who do not maintain a healthy diet are sent to learn the importance of a healthy diet. The Child soon learns of the importance of having a healthy, nutritious diet.

Health Lesson: Junk food comes in many forms and variations: Chips, fast food, ice cream, and countless desserts. But we eat junk food, even though we know it is bad for us, because we like the taste. This provides a very bad situation for us, because some people do not like the taste of nutritious food, which is important to our body’s growth and health.
This teaches us that eating junk food all the time won’t benefit us in a positive way, and that we need to eat apples, and fruits and vegetables overall to maintain a balanced and healthy lifestyle.
