Food Product Design: Emerging Evidence For Food Policy
INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF FOOD SCIENCES AND NUTRITION(2017)
摘要
The research on the impact of specific brand elements such as food descriptors and package colors is underexplored. We tested whether a light color and a low-calorie descriptor on food packages gain favorable consumer perception ratings as compared with regular packages. Our online experiment recruited 406 adults in a 3 (product type: Chips versus Juice versus Yoghurt)x2 (descriptor type: regular versus low-calorie)x2 (color type: regular versus light) mixed design. Dependent variables were sensory (evaluations of the product's nutritional value and quality), product-based (evaluations of the product's physical appeal), and consumer-based (evaluations of the potential consumers of the product) scales. Low-calorie descriptors were found to increase sensory ratings as compared with regular descriptors and light-colored packages received higher product-based ratings as compared with their regular-colored counterparts. Food package color and descriptors present a promising venue for understanding preventative measures against obesity.
