SINGAPORE: The Health Promotion Board (HPB) said on Monday that more fast-food joints in Singapore have come up with healthier offerings as part of its Healthier Dining Programme.

 

So far, 73 restaurant outlets have come onboard, including Subway and Saybons outlets.

 

The HPB said these healthier options are generally lower in fat and salt, and serve generous portions of fruits and vegetables.

 

This initiative rose out of concern that Singaporeans are spending more on fast-food, according to the 2003 Household Expenditure Data.

 

The HPB said the data also showed that cooked food budget for each Singapore family has doubled between 1982 and 2002.

Subway only consider healthy if u spare all the condiment and sauce. But without those dressing, the sandwich sucks.
