A report by Obesity Health Alliance and Food Active has revealed that some supermarkets in England are showing ‘a blatant disregard’ for government regulations and are still placing HFSS products (high in fat, salt or sugar) in prominent locations.
Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer has ruled out imposing a tax on HFSS (high in fat, sugar and salt) foods, but promises to ban the advertising of ‘harmful’ junk food and sugary snacks to children if his party is elected to power.
