New Rules Restrict Unhealthy Food Promotions in Scotland
The Scottish government has implemented new regulations to combat obesity by restricting the placement and promotion of foods high in fat, sugar, and salt. Large retailers are now prohibited from displaying these items in prime locations like aisle ends, entrances, and checkouts. Furthermore, multi-buy promotions, such as "three for the price of two," are banned for these products. While these rules aim to encourage healthier eating habits, popular meal deals remain exempt from the promotional restrictions.
