The organisation also called out Family restaurant Toby Carvery for their Unicorn Shake, containing 39 teaspoons of sugar. “It is time the government introduced legislation to force companies to be more transparent about what is in their products by displaying clear nutrition information online and in the outlets, at all times,” he added.
