Shoppers buy 75 per cent fewer unhealthy items when they're removed from checkouts

Shoppers buy 75 per cent fewer unhealthy items when they're removed from checkouts Shoppers bought three quarters fewer unhealthy products at supermarkets which didn't have them on display at checkouts, a study has revealed.

Items to eat 'on the go' such as small packets of sweets, chocolate and crisps were bought a drastic 76 per cent less at tills without the treats on show.

Shoppers also bought 17 per cent fewer treat items to be taken home after supermarkets adopted policies.

The Government is planning to ban the 'guilt aisles' which see parents pestered for sweets by their children and shoppers persuaded to buy snacks as they queue. The Daily Mail
