This study aims to assess the effects of a new approach to food labelling called physical activity calorie equivalent (PACE) labelling. PACE food labelling provides the public with information about how many minutes (or miles/kilometres) of physical activity (e.g. walking or running) are equivalent to the calories contained in foods.

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| PACE plus calorie information intervention group | Experimental | PACE plus calorie information intervention group will receive PACE plus calorie information of discretionary foods via social media posts. |
|
| Calorie-only information comparator group | Active Comparator | Calorie-only information comparator group will receive calorie-only information of discretionary foods via social media posts. |

| PACE plus calorie labelling information | Behavioral | The intervention group will be exposed to PACE plus calorie labelling information via Instagram and Twitter social media posts every day for 13 weeks. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Change in eating behaviour of discretionary foods at 13 weeks | Eating behaviour of discretionary foods will be assessed by a modified version of Online Food Frequency Questionnaire (eNutri FFQ), designed to measure habitual food intake. Participants will record frequencies of discretionary food and drink items eaten during the last month (e.g. "1/week" or "1/day"). | Pre-baseline (one time point prior to randomisation) and post-intervention (one time point after week 13) |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Cognitive restraint of eating | A modified version (R18) of the Three-Factor Eating Questionnaire (TFEQ) will be used to measure cognitive restraint. | Pre-baseline (one time point prior to randomisation) and post-intervention (one time point after week 13) |

Participants will be randomised to one of two groups for 13 weeks: (i) PACE plus calorie information intervention group or (ii) calorie-only information comparator group.

| Calorie-only labelling information | Behavioral | The comparator group will be exposed to calorie-only labelling information via Instagram and Twitter social media posts every day for 13 weeks. |

Self-reported physical activity behaviour will be assessed using the 7-day International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) |
| Pre-baseline (one time point prior to randomisation) and post-intervention (one time point after week 13) |
| Body weight | Weight will be self-reported via participants own weighing scales. Participants will electronically send via email photograph evidence of readings of their fasted morning weight from weighing scales, following standardised instructions. | Pre-baseline (one time point prior to randomisation), mid-intervention (week 7) and post-intervention (one time point after week 13) |
