ANNOTATIONS:
The main idea is the price of healthy food and unhealthy food and effect of this to the students and pricing of food
according to their nutrition values.
Primary school canteen menus were collected as part of a policy compliance randomised trial. For each menu item, dietitians
classified its nutritional value; ‘green’ (‘good sources of nutrients’), ‘amber’ (‘some nutritional value’), ‘red’ (‘lack adequate
nutritional value’) and assigned a food category (e.g. ‘Drinks’, ‘Snacks’). Pricing information was extracted. Within each food
category, ANOVAs assessed between the mean price of ‘green’, ‘amber’ and ‘red’ items, and post-hoc tests were conducted.
Seventy of the 124 invited schools participated. There were significant differences in the mean price of ‘green’, ‘amber’ and ‘red
foods’ across categories, with ‘green’ items more expensive than ‘amber’ items in main-meal categories. Current pricing may
not encourage the purchasing of healthy main-meal items by and for students. Further investigation of pricing strategies that
enhance the public health benefits of existing school canteen policies and practices are warranted.Implications for Public
Health: Providing support to canteen managers regarding healthy canteen policies may have a positive impact on public health
nutrition.
