What are Coolfood Meals?
Low carbon Coolfood Meals are healthy, delicious choices that have a lower impact on the planet. Coolfood meals have at least 38% lower carbon emissions than the average meal. Switching from a hamburger to a Coolfood Meal once week, for a year, would save greenhouse gas emissions that are equivalent to four flights from NYC to London. Look for the Coolfood badge on the menu to reduce your impact today!
