Summary

This study tested whether adding environmental harm labels to fast-food menus influences how healthy the meals people choose are. Over 7,000 US adults completed an online survey where they ordered meals from mock burger and sandwich restaurant menus with different label designs. The goal was to see if eco-labels could steer people toward healthier options without changing the menu itself.
