What's it like to grow up in a broken food system? Three amazing, brave Bite Back young activists will be sharing their lived experience today
👇

Yet another argument for strengthening regulation from the industry itself. I paraphrase - but only lightly. “We operate within the law. Not our fault (guv) if people ‘misuse’ the products we make (and use every trick in our marketing playbook to sell)” theguardian.com/food/2024/may/…

Pick up a product with child-appealing packaging & chances are it will be unhealthy.
Our new research shows 78% of products are.
It's not right and stacks the odds against children's health. If businesses won't be responsible, Govt must act.

We were thrilled to see the Lords Food Diet and Obesity Committee put the spotlight on junk food marketing 👏👏

The world's biggest food company sells mostly unhealthy food - and doesn't appear to want to change citing as it would be 'counterproductive to our value creation model'

Great work from ShareAction to coordinate investor pressure on Nestlé

👩‍👦‍👦As a parent I v much agree & want healthier, sustainable school food with standards properly monitored.
📢As a campaigner I know that delicious & nutritious school food can be done & many schools already are - we need a better system so this is the norm for all school food.

Thank you, Minister Andrea Leadsom MP, for joining us at our event in Westminster.

It was truly a pleasure to share our stories and update you on our latest campaigns. We look forward to the opportunity to catch up again soon!

I've seen much of this stuff firsthand, regardless of caterer. Profit not the (only) issue here. The team aren't the problem. 40+ yrs of cutting costs, chronic underinvestment in skills and lax enforcement of regulation is. Better is possible - we see great school food every day.
