Response to FSS Consultation on Out of Home food environment - March 2019

Food Standards Scotland’s consultation on proposals to improve the Out of Home food environment in Scotland closed on 28^th February 2019.

As we have highlighted in our work, eating out of the home is increasing and is now part of our everyday lives.  With 20-25% of our overall calorie intake coming from out of home sources we must see action to improve what’s on offer and the information provided to consumers.  This could be a game changer in helping to prevent and tackle overweight and obesity in Scotland.
