Food Insecurity Clinical Trial
Official title:
Behavioral Economics to Implement a Traffic Light Nutrition Ranking System in a Network of Food Pantries
The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to test whether using behavioral economic strategies to promote healthy food choices on a food bank's online ordering platform increases the use of the traffic light nutrition ranking system and increases healthier food selections by the food agencies (e.g., food pantries) who use the food bank.
