Choosing Food in Moray – What’s It Really Like?

Many people want to choose good food… but the local shopping environment can make it harder than it should be.

👀 What helps:
✔ Clear labels
✔ Knowledgeable local retailers
✔ Fresh produce when available

⚠️ What gets in the way:
– Limited choice
– Healthier options often cost more
– Snacks & sugary foods placed where they're hard to avoid
– Consumer information is not always clear on unpackaged food

💬 Bottom line: People can make good choices —but the healthier option isn’t always the easiest one.
Working together with local shops + communities can help make healthier choices more visible, affordable, and accessible for everyone. 💚
