The Healthy Takeaway Option…

Saturday, August 29th, 2009

With healthy eating and fitness being the subject of much debate, takeaway food does tend to get a bad reputation. But given the pace of modern life it is little wonder that we end up opting for the easy way out in ordering a takeaway.

I am more that guilty of this sin myself! Having been a fitness freak (went to the gym 6-7 days a week for nearly 4 years), increasing family and work commitments resulted in the healthy lifestyle being knocked on the head. However I’ve now decided to get back to former fitness and therefore healthy meals need to be back on the daily menu.

The problem being is that healthy eating can not only be relatively expensive but it often takes an age to prepare. So… how nice would it be to be able to get a regular healthy takeaway meal? Easy, quick and no guilt pangs that you get straight after you’ve whopped up that lovely Bolognese Parmo! But I digress.

Although Boro Takeaways will predominantly cater for the traditional takeaway outlet (Indian, Chinese, Pizza etc) there’s nothing to say that we can’t bring healthy food to our customers.

So… we are thinking about targeting places like brunch or sandwich outlets and pasta or noodle bars. We can also suggest that our current takeaway partners come up with low-calorie healthy options where the nutritional content is highlighted and show the ’syn’ ratings for those who are on the Slimming World plan. We can then create a takeaway menu on our site that just lists the healthy options for you to choose from.

With places like sandwich outlets on board we can even cater for the all-day trade. So, fancy a sandwich for lunch? No bother – Order online at borotakeaways.com. If you are having an all-day business meeting, why not order some healthy snacks online to be delivered.

Mmmm food for thought! What do you think?
