But it's not just German nutritionists who are getting in on the push for better eating habits. Discount supermarket chain Lidl says that by 2025, it will reduce the salt and sugar content of its home brand products by 20 percent, starting with breakfast cereals. Aldi Süd - which is financially and legally separate from the other Aldi - meanwhile says that they “fundamentally strive to keep the sugar content of our traded items as low as possible”. But the company would not say exactly how much sugar and salt content would be reduced. “The offers on the shelves are getting better, but this is still far from good."
