Which? responds to the Government’s Childhood Obesity Plan Chapter 2

Alex Neill, Which? Managing Director of Home Products and Services, said:

“Price promotions and aggressive marketing of unhealthy foods aimed at children have been a scourge on our society for too long, fueling an obesity crisis and making life difficult for parents trying to help their children to live a healthy lifestyle.

“We know families want more action from government and the food industry – including tighter controls on advertising and more transparency about nutritional values on food labels and when eating out – and this ambitious plan is a significant step towards finally achieving that.”
