Why Doesn’t Cathy Eat Breakfast? (1972)

This film shows us possible reasons that Cathy might not be eating breakfast every morning, but ultimately asks that we, the audience, … all » “stop the projector and discuss”.

There’s another film in this series, “Why Not Snack?” which deals with snacking (obviously).

I’ve found that most of the school films that discuss nutrition are sponsored by a dairy organization.

This film is available on Educational Archive Volume Two : Social Engineering 101 DVD
