For too long has the consumer had to make a choice between buying something healthy (looking like it’ll taste of cardboard) and buying something tasty (screw the waistline). It can seem that there is little middle ground in the average supermarket.

Urban Fruit is outspoken after a packaging redesign earlier this year
Little Big Shot is full of energy, and packs a punch at shelf, too

These packs reflect a wider trend of health as a positive lifestyle choice, and one that’s available to everyone. Being healthy is no longer a sacrifice. Could this ‘positive health’— ‘yes’ claims rather than ‘no’ claims— be the start of a revolution on our supermarket shelves?
