Researchers from UCLA and the Rand Corp. report in the journal Academic Pediatrics that of the 16 food venues serving 14 hospitals studied in July 2010, 81% offered unhealthful “impulse items” — think freezers stocked with ice-cream treats — near the cash register. Only 31% offered nutrition information at the point of purchase, while just 25% sold whole-wheat bread.-Chanmun Jeong
