A big supermarket in the UK will remove all candy and chocolates from its checkouts. The store, Tesco（乐购）, said there will be no sweets next to customers at checkouts by the end of this year. It wants its customers to be healthier. Tesco did research on the best place to put things in its stores. It said that two-thirds of its customers thought it was a good idea to remove candies from in front of the checkouts. Philip Clarke from Tesco said: "We all know how easy it is to be tempted by sweets at the checkout, and we want to help our customers lead healthier lives." 

    Britain's Public Health Minister welcomed Tesco's idea. She said it would reduce obesity and poor health. She said: "This will help people to make healthier choices." The parenting website MumsNet.com told the BBC that Tesco's move was "positive" and would make life "easier". It said: "It's really positive to see a supermarket responding to their customers."
