We Eat Balanced

The We Eat Balanced campaign returns on 8 September until 22 October to help protect long-term consumer attitudes towards naturally produced 'British' meat and dairy and reinforce how they help form part of a healthy and sustainable dietThe term 'British' and the Union Flag will be showcased in our We Eat Balanced marketing campaign for the first time this autumn.

AHDB’s Director of Marketing Liam Byrne said: "We are incredibly proud that we have raised the bar yet again for 2023, with our industry-leading We Eat Balanced campaign.

"By incorporating the 'British' message, which we know is important to consumers, our aim is to highlight the exceptional taste and quality of our home-grown meat and dairy, whilst advocating its role in a nutritionally balanced and sustainable diet.   

"We believe that through these efforts we can foster a strong and enduring connection between consumers and our British farmers, who are so passionate about providing quality and sustainable food at every step of its journey, from field to fork."

This autumn we will be bold on:​ 

  • British beef​ 
  • British lamb​
  • British dairy​ 
Health

Meat and dairy contain vitamin B12, an essential nutrient not naturally present in foods of plant origin.

Meat and dairy are produced in Britain to world-class food and farming standards.
