Our Public Health and Communities team have recently created a number of 'Eat Better' guides aimed at supporting food outlets in Suffolk to make small changes to the food they prepare and serve, in an attempt to promote healthier eating options, and support improved well-being for our residents. Customers are increasingly seeking nutritious, lower-calorie, and more sustainable choices when eating out. All too often the less healthy options are playing the starring role and healthier food is pushed off stage. To improve health, we need to work together, so the more nutritious and more sustainable foods are in the spotlight. All of the guides are available for download at https://lnkd.in/eFqJpgH9 Help us spread the word about these free downloadable guides with café, takeaway, canteen and restaurant owners across Suffolk.
