Summary

This between-subjects randomised controlled trial aims to test the effect of a menu featuring salt warning labels on perceived message effectiveness relative to a menu with no labels in a real-world restaurant environment. The study will also act as a pilot experiment for examining the impact of the salt warning label on food choice and subsequent salt intake in real-world conditions.

Primary objectives:

* To measure the PME of a menu featuring salt warning labels relative to a menu with no labels
* To measure label awareness, perceived knowledge gain, and perceived influence of the label on food choice

Secondary objectives:

* Total salt selected
* Total salt intake
* To examine support for the introduction of a salt warning label policy in the UK
