On Thursday, February 7, 2013, 华体会 released a new report examining efforts by major restaurant chains to sell lower calorie foods and beverages and what impact those efforts have had on those companies' bottom lines. This report was produced by the Obesity Solutions Initiative of 华体会, with funding from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation. The release of the report focused on a key question:

__Can selling lower-calorie foods and beverages be better for corporations' sales, customer traffic, and total servings?__

Lead author Hank Cardello, Senior Fellow and Director of Hudson's Obesity Solutions Initiative, and a distinguished panel hosted this event to release the report, led a discussion of the report's findings, and analyzed the implications for both the restaurant industry and public health.
