One way to encourage healthier eating is by making nutritional information of packaged foods available at the point of purchase.
So, many countries have adopted front-of-pack (FOP) and shelf labeling systems that are designed to offer simplified, at-a-glance cues about a product’s nutritional quality.

In the intervention store, healthier options also appeared higher in search results.
