Name: Frankie T
I live: Sydney
Q: If potato chips cost $1.60 per packet, cola costs $1.50 per can and chocolate bars cost $1.70 each, how much would it cost 12 year old Timothy if he bought 2 packets of chips, 1 can of cola and 1 chocolate bar for his dinner?

(A) $6.40.
(B) The above + socioeconomic costs of a poor diet.
(C) The above + long term developmental deficiencies due to lack of contact hours with father and mother.
(D) The above + social stigma of long term obesity.
(E) None of the above. Timothy resides in an utopian civilisation where junk food has limited appeal and little profitability. Moreover, Timothy's parents work reasonable hours, allowing the family to consume a nutrious and tasty dinner that consists of ingredients harvested and packaged by employees on a fair and equitable award wage and transported to supermarkets in environmentally friendly vehicles.
