Hands off our 5-a-day! Healthy eating claims for fatty and sugary foods are taking the biscuit
Labelling for sustainability - 23pp - 2012
Over the past 10 years, Sustain has worked with the Food Commission and other concerned health organisations to defend the 5-a-day message from inappropriate use by the manufacturers and marketers of processed foods, to protect the health of the nation. However, a decade on, Sustain has started to witness a return of the 5-a-day message being used on junk foods, and on products that contain a derisory amount of fruit and vegetables. The report Hands off our 5-a-day! reports on misappropriation of the 5-a-day message, reacts to a Channel 4 Dispatches programme showing that a chocolate biscuit can count as half of one portion of your 5-a-day, according to the food industry, and makes recommendations for government to take back control of this precious health message.Labelling for sustainability - 23pp - 2012

The 21st century gingerbread house - how companies are marketing junk food to children online
Children’s Food Campaign - 2011
Children’s Food Campaign - 2011
This joint report from the Children’s Food Campaign (CFC) and the British Heart Foundation (BHF) reveals the manipulative tactics junk food manufacturers use to hook children while they play online and entice them to eat foods loaded with fat, salt and sugar. The report assesses how junk food manufacturers bombard kids online in a bid to push these unhealthy products. The CFC and BHF are calling for consistent advertising regulations across all forms of media to protect children and their future health.
All the brands featured in the report are products which are high in fat, salt or sugar (HFSS). Advertisements for these products can’t be shown during children’s television programmes because they fail the Food Standards Agency and Ofcom nutrient profiling test. Yet due to a loophole in advertising regulations, companies are allowed to market these products and brands freely via the internet.
