Toronto Public Health brings fresh

The Food Strategy team at the health department is now pushing an initiative that encourages convenience stores to stock up on fresh food.

By doing this, the government hopes to promote the consumption of health foods among consumers who do not necessarily live a stone’s throw away from grocery stores.

But that’s not the only category this move is pegged to benefit. It is hoped that this initiative will help give convenience stores an additional method making money aside from the traditional cigarette and lotto ticket selling model.

The category of health foods that will be made available are fresh fruits and vegetables, which will hopefully dominate the less healthy food choices already out there.
