About this listen

South Australia is rolling out a new policy banning junk food advertising on public transport — but the headlines are causing quite a bit of confusion.

Are rice cakes, soy milk, and ham sandwiches really on the banned advertising list?

In this episode of The Nutrition Couch, Leanne and Susie break down the facts behind the ad ban, explain why it’s causing so much confusion for parents, and weigh in on whether the government has taken the right approach — or missed the mark entirely.

You’ll learn:

  • What South Australia’s new ad ban really targets — and why it’s not a food ban

  • Why lunchbox staples like soy milk and ham are caught in the confusion

  • Susie’s take on processed meats — and when restrictions make sense

  • A simple Friday strategy that makes Sunday meal prep (finally) work

Also in this episode:
