Asian Wedding Catering

An Asian wedding is often a huge event, and with hundreds of people typically attending the bride and groom’s special day; it’s important to ensure that everything is taken care of. Unlike western weddings that involve particular traditions, an Asian wedding can be as diverse as it is colourful. This diversity is what makes them so much fun to be a part of, and in order to get the most from the day then it should be a priority to employ the right people.

Food at the Event

Next to the bride and groom, the food is probably the most talked about thing at a wedding. Laying a good spread will stay in people’s memories for years and years, but the demands of fulfilling everyone’s differing taste palettes doesn’t have to be as difficult as many people imagine. In fact, there are certain companies out there that specialise in Asian wedding catering, and these companies include Baywok Catering – who can be reached by visiting Baywokcatering.com.au.

With years of experience in the industry, their experienced team are capable of providing a fantastic range of dishes to cater to everyone’s preferences. Whether this be via a buffet, or serving-style restaurant, or even a breakfast menu. Asian cuisine is hugely varied when compared to other cuisine styles, and one of the biggest concerns amongst the betrothed and their families is that a proper variation may not be obtainable.

Fortunately, companies like Baywok Catering have taken this in to careful consideration. They are able to attend an event ahead of time, make plans for the catering and equipment, and then put that plan in to practice. Once the number of guests has been decided, the company will actively prepare food before the event, and then transport it to the location ready for service.

If the guests require their food to be taken to them, then the friendly team of caterers will wait on them hand and foot; making sure that each and every single request is catered to. In cases where a buffet may be a little more preferred, then each dish will be fully prepared and then placed within heated trays (if necessary), to allow guests to choose exactly what they like, and when they’d like it.

Baywok Catering also provide office catering services, including noodle box catering where a solid location for the food to be placed may not be present. In these instances, the company will prepare and then transport the food to the designated location of your choice – taking the hassle out of transport completely. As the company are a full catering service, they’ll even offer to stick around afterwards and tidy up on behalf of your guests and visitors.

A Brief Overview Of Herbalife

When men and women want to whip their bodies into the best possible shape, they will want to do business with a company that sells reputable products. Herbalife will provide interested parties with good ways to stay fit. With an attention to detail, most people will be quite happy with the progress that can be made.

Individuals will want to begin by sticking to a dietary plan. By mixing out meats and cheeses that are no good for the heart and lungs, they can quickly and efficiently bring down their cholesterol levels. Eating a lot of fruits and vegetables will also help out quite a bit.

People will also need to make sure they are getting enough physical exercise several times each week. They might very well begin their training by running on a treadmill in the basement. Once they have established a base fitness level, they can move on and begin running on the streets outside.

Many of the weight-loss management products can be ordered online. These will be shipped to the doorstep within just a few business days. This way, individuals can begin using them right away. The pounds will surely melt off the body.

Once people have committed to losing weight, they should try hard to remain on track toward their goals. Even if they are having a bad day, they’ll still want to make time to get their exercises in. Keeping a rigorous food journal will also help out. This will allow men and women to determine how many calories they are actually consuming.

In the end, finding a company that offers reputable products will be important. When exercise enthusiasts locate a business they can trust, faster fitness will occur. People can shortly begin showing off their brand new bodies to anyone and everyone who will look.

01.CHOICE opposes proposal

A public consultation process run by Food Standards Australia New Zealand (FSANZ) is calling for electrolyte drinks (EDs) such as Gatorade and Powerade to be able to carry health claims.

But CHOICE warns that allowing health claims on these types of sports drinks, which by definition contain a significant amount of sugar and salt, will mislead consumers into thinking that they’re generally a healthy option, and has made a submission opposing the proposal.

Electrolyte drinks formulated for athletes, not general use

CHOICE spokesperson Tom Godfrey says, “Sports drinks can help elite athletes but they aren’t designed for everyday use. Health claims on sports drinks would only apply to a limited group of people but drinks like Gatorade and Powerade are marketed and sold to everyone.”

“Most people will receive no health benefit from a bright blue sugar drink. Sports drinks belong on the shelves next to Coke and lemonade, not in the health food aisle and the claims on the label need to reflect this,” he says.

EDs are specifically formulated for the rapid replacement of fluid, carbohydrates, electrolytes and minerals – ostensibly for people engaging in strenuous or prolonged exercise. Consequently the Food Standards Code requires them to contain a certain amount of sugar and salt.

High sugar content

 

A standard 600mL bottle of Gatorade contains 36g of sugar, for example, which is comparable to the 40g sugar in a standard 375mL can of Coca-Cola – both of which are labelled as single serves, to be consumed in one sitting.

Under the current health claims standard, Gatorade wouldn’t meet the necessary Nutrient Profiling Scoring Criteria (NPSC) due to its high sugar content and associated kilojoule content, and therefore wouldn’t be eligible to make a health claim. However the current proposal wouldn’t require EDs to meet the NPSC in order to make a health claim.

The NPSC is an important consumer protection test, to ensure that consumers aren’t misled. Godfrey argues, “People should have the confidence that if a product has a health claim, then it is a healthier product. Creating a loophole for sports drinks is a backwards step.”

EDs only produce benefits for a small subset of the Australian population, and even then the benefits are limited. The Australian Institute of Sport states that athletes need to undertake high-intensity exercise of approximately 60 minutes or more to benefit from consuming EDs, for example.

Sports drinks ‘widely available’

 

Despite this, they are marketed to and consumed by a much wider audience. Australians drink millions of litres of EDs each year and the sports drinks market increased in grocery value by 13.3% last year. And consumer research highlights that many individuals consume sports drinks in situations unrelated to strenuous exercise, such as when feeling thirsty or hot, flat or lethargic, or feeling hungover.

“Sports drinks are widely available. You can find them in supermarkets, corner stores, vending machines and they are often placed at point-of-sale to encourage impulse purchases. They’re clearly marketed to a wide audience and it makes no sense to allow health claims that would only apply to a small group of athletes,” says Godfrey.

“We are calling on FSANZ to put the consumer first and not to proceed with these changes.”
