Abstract
In response to rising levels of childhood
obesity, schools have become an influential
environment in the promotion of health
behaviours and in particular programmes
aimed at increasing children's consumption of
fruit and vegetables. A range of UK schoolbased
interventions have been developed to
target children's fruit and vegetable
consumption (Ransley et al, 2007; Wardle,
Herrera, Cooke Gibson). One intervention
that has been suggested to be particularly
effective is the Food Dudes programme.
