Nestle Pushes Use of Nutri-Score in Europe Image not found or type unknown Nestle pushes use of Nutri-Score in Europe 28 November 2019 | News | By Manbeena Chawla In total, more than 5000 products in the five countries will feature Nutri-Score Image not found or type unknown Nestlé has announced that it will use Nutri-Score nutrition labeling in Austria, Belgium, France, Germany and Switzerland, starting in the first half of 2020. The company will implement Nutri-Score across brands of its wholly-owned businesses over a two-year period. Cereal Partners Worldwide, the international breakfast venture between Nestlé and General Mills, will also implement Nutri- Score on its product packaging in the same countries. In total, more than 5000 products in the five countries will feature Nutri-Score. Nutri-Score is a voluntary front-of-pack scheme that classifies foods and beverages according to their nutritional profile. It is a color-coded system with a scale ranging from A (healthier choices) to E (less healthy choices). Marco Settembri, CEO of Nestlé for Europe, Middle East and North Africa said: "Our ambition is to have one of the healthiest options in every product category we offer. Nutri-Score will motivate us and help track our progress. I am proud that Nestlé is the first company to roll out Nutri-Score at this scale in Europe. We now want to move quickly as we are sure this is the right way forward." Nestlé and Cereal Partners Worldwide are beginning the roll-out of Nutri-Score in those European countries that already support the system. The two companies are ready to implement it in further countries that request it or notify it to the European Commission. David Clark, President and CEO of Cereal Partners Worldwide said: "Our pursuit of a better breakfast is never finished. As leaders in the breakfast cereal sector, we can help everyone have a healthy, nutritious, and tasty start to the day with our cereals. Our consumers are at the heart of this quest – past, present, and future. That’s why we’re using Nutri-Score to guide the development and communication of the nutritional value of our products." Nestlé brands on which Nutri-Score will appear include plant-based products from Garden Gourmet, Nesquik chocolate- flavored milk, Buitoni pizzas, Nescafé coffee, Maggi culinary products and KitKat chocolate. Cereal Partners Worldwide will use Nutri-Score on its breakfast cereals, including Fitness and Chocapic. Some products such as infant formula are out of scope or fall under separate regulations. Monique Goyens, Director-General of BEUC said: "BEUC, the European Consumer Organisation, applauds Nestlé’s decision to broadly roll out Nutri-Score. Research conducted in several countries demonstrate indeed that Nutri-Score is currently the best-performing scheme in aiding consumers to make healthier choices. Therefore, we consider Nutri-Score to be a major tool to contribute to tackling the obesity crisis. We can only recommend that other companies follow Nestlé's excellent example and display Nutri-Score on their products. Moving forward, we believe that all European consumers should benefit from Nutri-Score. This is why several consumer organisations, who are members of the BEUC network, have launched a petition* asking the European Commission to make Nutri-Score mandatory across Europe." The ambitious implementation plan follows on from Nestlé’s announcement in June 2019 expressing support for Nutri-Score in continental Europe, to support European and local public health agendas. Marco Settembri said: "With Nutri-Score, we want to enable people to make informed decisions for healthier diets. We are also speeding up the transformation of our products and launching more products that have a better environmental footprint and contribute to a balanced diet. This includes more plant-based food and beverage options.".

    Understanding the Unprecedented: Quarantine and its Effects on the American Consumer Overview As the Coronavirus crisis takes its toll on both the psyche and wallets of Americans, we conducted a study to address its impact on the consumer. In our first edition of the Coronavirus Consumer Report we addressed the following questions: 1. How has the Coronavirus and related crisis impacted the ways in which consumers engage in 1 digital content and make purchase decisions? 2. How will these trends shift as the crisis continues and we settle into our “new normal”? The 2 first two weeks of the crisis were a shock to the system. What will the next phase look like from a consumer perspective? 3. Will these trends or some of these trends achieve a level of permanence even after the crisis 3 abates? In order to answer these questions, we partnered with data insights analytics firm, Crosswalk, to analyze the digital data of over 5 million consumers. This edition of the Coronavirus Consumer Report covers the first two weeks of the crisis when Americans went from living what were essentially their normal lives to sheltering at home or a version of it within the span of days. We plan to provide pulse check updates throughout the crisis to see how the trends evolve over time. For this report, Traub and Crosswalk conducted a study of 5.29M consumers who provided self- identified information via social media platforms. We sourced parsed data from digital networks, consumption trends, habits, and language. We then applied our proprietary funnel system to filter the data and assign inferences based on proven correlations between specific data points and demographically known characteristics.

  • Cricket Eating for Your Sport
    CRICKET EATING FOR YOUR SPORT Your sport: Cricket has been an established team sport for hundreds of years. It is a game of skill, requiring a good level of fitness and the ability to remain focused, often for long periods of time. The 22 yard (20.12m) cricket pitch takes centre stage where two teams of 11 players compete to score the most runs when it’s their turn to bat, better known as their ‘innings’. Each innings is then divided into ‘overs’, each consisting of 6 legal bowls from one bowler. At the end of an ‘over’ the bowler takes up a fielding position and another player bowls. Of the 11 players in each team, there are specialist batsmen and bowlers, a wicket- keeper and possibly some all-rounders that can play multiple positions. The level of fitness required is often dependant on the level of cricket, the length of the competition and the positions being played. Cricket is usually played only in dry weather and play is generally stopped if it becomes too dark for the batsmen to see the ball safely. These requirements mean that in England, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa and Zimbabwe the game is usually restricted to the summer months. In the West Indies, India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh games are played in the winter. This Nutrition Advice Sheet is aimed for those who compete and train at a recreational level. Elite players require different nutrition pre and post training and/or competition strategies. COMPETITION IS STRUCTURED AS EITHER: 3 - TWENTY20 CRICKET For all players, the fundamental focus for nutrition is to ensure that a balanced Twenty20 matches usually start in the and varied diet is maintained as well as evening and last around two and a 1 - TEST CRICKET being able to vary food and fluid intake half to three hours.
