【用新聞學英文】UK to Ban Unhealthy Food Deals英國將禁止不健康食物的買賣

🍰🍰Article🍰🍰 The UK has announced plans to ban "buy one, get one free" deals and other special offers for unhealthy food. The ban affects food and drinks with high levels of sugar, salt and fat, and will start in April 2022. As part of the new rules, restaurants in the UK will also no longer be allowed to offer free refills of sugary drinks. The ban will also stop unhealthy food and drinks — or ads for them — from being placed in shop entrances, at the ends of aisles, or at checkouts. These new location rules will only apply to stores that are over 185 square meters in size. Specialist stores, like chocolate shops, won't be affected, but they will still have to follow the other new rules. British Public Health Minister Jo Churchill said that the new rules will help everyone eat healthier foods, which is an important part of improving the health of the nation. The changes are part of the government's plan to help people in the UK lose weight. The UK's National Health Service (NHS) says 67% of British men and 60% of British women are overweight or obese. NHS data also shows 9.7% of children aged 4 to 5 are obese, as are 20.2% of children aged 10 to 11. In July 2020, the British government also announced plans to ban ads for unhealthy food both on TV and online before 9:00 p.m. And in November 2020, it said it would ban all online advertising of unhealthy foods. 🍰🍰Summary🍰🍰 這個即將在2022年4月生效的英國政府禁令，將會限制不健康食物的促銷活動。 英國餐廳日後將無法再提供免費含糖飲料的續杯服務。不健康食物的廣告也不能放置在商店入口或是結帳的櫃檯。 英國公衛部長邱吉爾表示，新規則將幫助每個人吃更健康的食物，而這也是改善國家健康重要的一環。 🍰🍰Words & Phrases🍰🍰 refill再次填滿...的量 aisle走道 checkout結帳櫃檯 #每周二、四更新 #歡迎留言給Neil ----- 主持人：陳彣 (Neil)、陳茜語 (Kitty) ----- Apple｜Spotify｜Google｜KKBOX｜Fistory｜SoundOn 搜尋訂閱：英語Follow me ----- ▍教育電臺 ▍官網:https://bit.ly/39ISswV ▍粉絲團:https://bit.ly/nerpodcastlink ▍線上收聽:https://bit.ly/3cyxBhE Powered by Firstory Hosting
