Re: Long-Awaited Obesity Action Plan 'Watered Down' As Govt 'Missed Opportunity'

I find one issue in the UK is the lack of tasty and healthier fast foods at reasonable cost. Maybe its just part of the culture too though and our climate. But if you watch travel food programmes you can see that other countries have vendors selling much larger selections of food (some healthy others much less so) at good prices, more choice, good flavours. Thinking of one of my favourites would be a noodle soup, good stock, a few bits of "extra" like meat/fish, some veg and noodles. Often this is filling, pretty healthy, tasty and can be not too expensive. Nice street food in places.

Here food is either tasty, filling and unhealthy where the healthy options are usually less interesting, tasty, filling or are expensive. This would lead back to good ingredients being much more costly. I don't usually want the "healthy" option because it is too often less appetising, too small (doesn't fill me) or too expensive.
