Less
time = less nutrition: why?
Lifestyles
are becoming more hectic. A survey(*1)
recently found that the average amount
of time people
were
spending
on lunch had fallen from 35 minutes in 2000
to just 27 minutes in 2002, and we can only
guess how long will be taken in the future!
As
peoples lives become faster with less time
to eat, what they eat becomes ever
more important so, how healthy are
the options
currently available?
The
obvious choice for most people in a hurry
is a sandwich,
but
feast point urges consumers, especially
women,
to choose their sandwiches carefully,
especially for the fat content as many
brands contain
over 40% of the average daily fat allowance. The
average daily energy consumption for men
is 2500 Kcal and for women 2000. 33% of
that
energy intake should be via fat, which equates
to 95gms of fat per day for men and 70gms
for women.(*2)
At feast point we have put together a menu
of tasty, healthier options, and as the chart
on the next page shows, for a 400gm portion
feast point meal, you get on average, less
fat, salt, and calories than in a sandwich,
with the average sandwich weighing less than
200gms.

We
offer a range of healthy salads hand prepared
in our own kitchens from the finest
ingredients with varities to reflect
the diversityof our menu. We genuinely
create our salads for
variety
and flavour, and we are sure that nowhere
in the high street will you find such quality
for such a value price.
The
feast point dispenses a range of healthy
drinks such as orange juice, real still
lemonade, smoothies and pure still mineral
water. These drinks are bottled especially
for feast point and have beeen sourced
for their quality and flavour and offer
a tasty, healthy alternative to the sugary
drinks available elsewhere. If you want
something hot, try one of our 100% natural
soups in a cup which come in a range of
seasonal flavours.
We
have spent many months sourcing and creating
the best quality
product and
then designed
a feast point to dispense this menu
directly to the consumer. We have ensured
we offer
something different to the norm, in
order that you can
eat a healthy, quick and convenient
meal, in a way that has not been previously
possible.
