Labour on food

From Labour 

Labour’s Food Spokesperson, Sean Sherlock TD, has stated that the proliferation of fast food outlets in these recessionary times will have a negative impact on the health of Irish citizens.

So their solution?

One way to tackle this problem is to expand the ‘Supermarket Tours’ programme which was set up under the Community Nutrition and Dietetic Service (HSE WEST) in 2003. This will need more Community Dieticians to implement.

“The expansion of the Supermarket Tour programme throughout the country, involving a qualified dietician/ nutritionist accompanying participants through the aisles of the supermarket, and giving good advice, would assist in changing our eating culture.

Yes Labour want Supermarket police to follow you around the supermarket. Going “tut tut that is bad for you”  What is next doing the same in a newagents?

    I would have thought all the cooking programs on the telly would have had some impact on people.
