The plan by AVA to curb the use of trans-fat in all food sold is encouraging, however I hope that this effort will be sustained. We do not want to see another instance of a move like “Bring your own bag day”.
As a working employee, I have no choice but to pay to eat unhealthy food sold at our food centres which are salty, have too much MSG and too oily. Many Singaporean men and women nowadays have thinning hair or experience balding, I believe the food we partake has some linkages to our scalp problems.
I hope one day, the authorities can implement a rating for all food stalls on the healthy levels of the food they sold. Health is important, we are what we eat. Consumers have the right to eat healthy food.
