"The FDA regulations are going to have a huge impact on how Americans choose what they eat. We want to be ahead of the curve, not only on our labeling but also on our healthy options for our fans," said Jax Sperling, director of culinary R&D of Genghis Grill.
Additional healthy elements include the calorie count stickers for the in-store signage and the heavy emphasis on the Heart Healthy program. The website also features a calculator to help consumers define their nutritional intake.
The Asian stir-fry concept continues to promote its healthy elements at the local store level with Health Kwest, the annual healthy-influenced campaign that last year adopted 54 Genghis Grill "khantestants" to eat Genghis Grill everyday for 90 days, promoting its healthy dining options. The 2011 Health Kwest winner, Brandon Sanders from the Genghis Grill in Murfreesboro, Tenn., lost 60 lbs. during the challenge and continues to maintain his weight loss. The 2012 Health Kwest will launch nationwide at the beginning of January to promote healthy dining.
"We will continue to innovate and encourage 'hot and healthy' options without sacrificing flavor combinations that satisfy the demands at a price that is comparable to fast food chains," said Ron Parikh, chief marketing officer for Genghis Grill.
