In 2006, The Walt Disney Company became the first major media company to establish a Nutrition Guideline Policy to associate its brands and characters with a more nutritious portfolio of foods and beverages. The Disney Check is a quick and easy way for families to identify healthier foods and beverages that meet Disney’s rigorous Nutrition Guideline Criteria and helps parents and kids agree on healthier choices. The Disney Nutrition Guideline Criteria promote the consumption of nutritious foods such as fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean protein and low-fat dairy; they also help to limit saturated fats, sugar and sodium.
