In Europe, food manufacturers have signed 'responsibility pledges', promising no added sugar, preservatives, artificial colors or flavors and not to target children. So why are they using tactics banned in the West in the developing world? There, they have created ultra low cost products with higher levels of salt, sugar and saturated fats. Filmed in Brazil, India and France, Global Junk Food investigates the new tactics of brands like Coca-Cola, McDonald's, and Domino's Pizza.
