Hospital offers ‘shop healthy’ food tours

The brainchild of dietician manager at the hospital, Karen Macken, the 90-minute tours, which will kick off at the end of the month, are intended to show people how to shop healthily. The tours take place in the company of a qualified dietician and will take place in SuperValu in the Cork suburbs of Grange, Togher, or Glanmire.
Bon Secours is charging people €25 per person in a small group or €150 for a private tour in what it calls its “guide to shopping and menu planning” and the tours are particularly aimed at people with cholesterol, diabetes, coeliac disease, food allergies, and other special diets.
