Restaurants will create healthier menus when they are involved in community programs to address childhood obesity, Texas State University researchers find. The Best Food for Families, Infants, and Toddlers program aimed to improve children’s access to healthy diets through partnerships with restaurants in San Marcos, Texas. The restaurants removed sugar-sweetened beverages, decreased the number of energy-dense entrées, and/or increased fruit and vegetable offerings on their menus. Sixteen independent restaurants and 1 chain restaurant implemented new menus as part of the program. go.usa.gov/tcsP
