Healthy Menus
Continuing from the 2009, the Food Standards Agency (FSA) initiative to develop a calorie labeling scheme for the catering industry, the government have launched a Public Health responsibility deal to encourage caterers to provide nutritional information to customers.
A key Responsibility Deal initiative is the introduction of calorie information in high street food outlets. People will now be able to see calories on menus and menu boards and be in a better position to consider healthier choices.
How can we help…
From nurseries to schools, through to catering organisations and restaurants, we can analyse your menus and recipes and provide the following:
Menu Matters offer nursery menu advice on providing healthy balanced meals:
- Support with nutritional guidelines and regulations
- Menu labelling – Calorie count, Fat (including saturated fat), and salt levels
- Traffic light labelling
- Menu planning
- Nutritional analysis
- Cost reduction opportunities
See who has joined…
There are currently 37 companies who have signed up to the initiative including Harvester Pubs, Mc Donald’s, The Compass Catering Group, Tescos and Sainsburys, with the expectation that nutritional information will be on display in 5000 outlets by the end of the year.
