16 Aug 2019 --- A quarter of savory UK picnic foods are dangerously high in salt, while over a third exceed their average salt targets, according to a new survey by Action on Salt, a group based at Queen Mary University of London. Additionally, almost a third of products have no color-coded front-of-pack (FoP) labeling, which Action on Salt says makes it harder for consumers to find a healthy option. The group is now calling for compulsory FoP nutritional labeling on all food products and for bold and comprehensive salt reduction targets to be set in 2020.
