My answer is no.
The subconscious will pick up on the fat/sugar food message and because i see others eat it (sim, cartoon or real it makes no difference), the message is that i will think it is okay as well. Now there will be a debate on because it is a computer game, it isn't really doing any harm, except that every user is bombarded with this message and because EA put it into the game it must be okay to get fat, lazy and enjoy it, but that is a really bad message to send especially considering the audience this game is aimed at, not to mention irresponsible of EA to encourage a really unhealthy living style like that.
Fine, people can eat and drink what they like, then they get diabetes type 2, then that is on them. But it isn't something that should be considered lightly or made fun of. There is an opportunity in TS4 to actually consider healthier food options in addition to all the gym and fitness stuff, i just wish it were taken by EA.
More moderation and less stacking the deck.
