Child-size meals to tackle obesity

MORE restaurants are to offer child-size meals in a bid to tackle Ireland’s childhood obesity levels.

Kids Size Me, a joint initiative by the Nutrition and Health Foundation and the Restaurants Association of Ireland, lets parents know there are child-size portions of adult meals available as an alternative to the standard children’s menu.

Participating restaurants will carry the new Kid Size Me symbol on their menus and over the coming weeks consumers can log onto www.wheretoeat.ie to see a list of participating venues.
