INSIDE AUSTRALIA’S QUICK SERVICE RESTAURANTS 2018

Australians spend nearly 32% of their household food budget on fast food and eating out, and the average fast food meal contains almost half of an adult’s recommended daily energy intake. The policies and actions of the quick service restaurant industry can have a significant impact on population diets

Inside Our Quick Service Restaurants 2018 assessed the largest Australian quick service restaurants on their policies and commitments related to obesity prevention and nutrition.

Overall findings

The majority of the largest quick service restaurants in Australia do not publicly identify nutrition and health as a focus area. Across the sector, there is limited disclosure of company efforts to address obesity and population nutrition issues.
