Editor's Notes

  1. GREEN: They are the foods from the five healthy food groups depicted in the Australian Guide to Healthy Eating - (1) cereals and breads; (2) vegetables and legumes; (3) fruit; (4) milks, yoghurt, cheese and alternatives; (5) meat, fish, poultry and alternatives. These foods offer a wide range of nutrients and are generally low in saturated fat, sugar and salt. Choosing water as a drink is a GREEN choice. AMBER foods and drinks should be selected carefully. AMBER foods and drinks are foods and drinks that contribute some valuable nutrients, but contain more saturated fat, sugar and/or salt than GREEN foods. They may contribute to excess energy (kilojoules) if consumed in large quantities. They should not dominate the menu or choices displayed and large serving sizes should be avoided. Specific quantitative nutrient criteria are used to define AMBER foods. The criteria take into consideration saturated fat, sodium (salt), fibre and kilojoule (energy) profile of the food, and apply either per serve or per 100 grams, depending on the category of food. The traffic light system is currently used throughout ACT schools, through the implementation of the National Healthy School Canteen Guidelines.
