Closed petition: Require food and drink companies to use Nutri-Score on their packaging

Closed on 20 June 2025

I think the government should require companies to use Nutri-Score as a mandatory front-of-pack label. I think this A–E system simplifies healthy choices while supporting those with eating disorders who find calorie counting harmful.

Used in France, I think Nutri-Score is effective and evidence-based, promoting informed, stigma-free decisions. I feel that current traffic light labelling often misrepresents foods, like avocados, due to their fat content. Nutri-Score (A–E) could offer a research-backed, simple alternative.

Around 94% of French consumers support the Nutri-Score on the front of food packages and up to 57% of consumers reported in 2020 that they changed at least one purchasing habit due to Nutri-Score.

Nutri-Score integrates fats, sugars, fibre, protein, and energy into one label, which could reduce confusion and stigma, especially for those with eating disorders.
