Show Notes
A nutritionist would love to see confectionary moved away from the checkouts.
Countdown's aiming to make healthier choices easier for customers, and combat checkout 'pester power'.
The supermarket chain —soon to be Woolworths— has committed to 80% of foods at checkouts carrying a Health Star Rating of 3.5 or more.
It's also moving "kids confectionary" elsewhere.
Nutritionist Nikki Hart told Kate Hawkesby that it’s got to be better than the current trend.
