“…This finding is in line with a thorough review study on the importance of food naturalness for consumers that revealed that to the majority of consumers, food naturalness is crucial (Román, Sánchez‐Siles, & Siegrist, 2017). Gomez, Schneid, and Delaere (2015) also found that consumers differed in their perception of food naturalness and the difference influenced their consumption of fresh dairy products. This result implies that it can be relevant to take naturalness into account when developing dried mango.…”

One way to add value to tropical fruit and increase its availability in the global market is to develop new, less perishable, products from fresh fruit. The purpose of this study is to compare the perception of key quality attributes and preferences of dried mango between consumers with different familiarity and health consciousness. This study surveyed respondents from China, Indonesia, and the Netherlands via an adaptive choice-based conjoint method (n = 483) to evaluate intrinsic quality attributes that influenced consumer preference for dried mango. Consumers in different countries have different texture, taste, and color preferences for dried mango. The most important attribute for the Dutch and Chinese was "free from extra ingredients", while for Indonesians, it was the texture. Familiarity with dried mango and health consciousness do not influence consumer preference of intrinsic attributes of dried mango. Different preferences of intrinsic attributes of dried mango between countries are related to cultural differences. This study provides useful insights for food manufacturers into the significance of key intrinsic quality attributes in developing dried mango.

“…As for consumer attitudes to food naturalness affecting their behaviour and intentions, some studies report INF measurement items overlapping measuring intentions or behaviours in relation to eating organic food [ 49 , 51 , 53 , 54 ]. INF influences intention to eat in a more enviro-friendly way [ 55 ] with fresh [ 56 ], local/traditional [ 52 , 57 ] natural [ 58 ] and low-calorie food items [ 59 ]. The results cross-country analysis obtained by Hemmerling et al [ 57 ] were inconclusive; INF had a strong impact on local/traditional foods in Italy and Germany, but was negligible in The Netherlands, Poland, France and Switzerland.…”

At a moment when the population is increasingly aware and involved in what it eats, both consumers and the food sector are showing more interest in natural foods. This review work discusses, addresses and provides details of the most important aspects of consumer’s perceptions of and attitudes to natural foods and in-depth research into natural sweeteners. It also includes issues about their use and development as regards health impacts, food security and sustainability. In line with our main research outcome, we can assume that consumers are very keen on choosing foods with clean labelling, natural ingredients, preferably with other functional properties, without the loss of taste. In response to such a phenomenon, the food industry offers consumers alternative natural sweeteners with the advantage of added health benefits. It is noteworthy that Nature is a superb source of desirable substances, and many have a sweet taste, and many still need to be studied. Finally, we must stress that being natural does not necessarily guarantee market success.

“…small cola bottles), and can trigger a higher incidence of consumption ( Chandon and Wansink, 2002 , Neslin and Van Heerde, 2009 ). Product convenience also enables impulsive eating ( Wansink, 1994 ) and affects perceptions of appropriateness of consumption frequency ( Gomez, Schneid, & Delaere, 2015 ). Accordingly, in the present study, the convenience of smaller bottles in reducing the consumption effort inherent in glass use and related to their portability were discussed as important facilitators to consumption.…”

Perceived impact of smaller compared with larger-sized bottles of sugar-sweetened beverages on consumption: A qualitative analysis

et al. 2018

Sugar-sweetened beverage (SSB) consumption increases obesity risk and is linked to adverse health consequences. Large packages increase food consumption, but most evidence comes from studies comparing larger with standard packages, resulting in uncertainty regarding the impact of smaller packages. There is also little research on beverages. This qualitative study explores the experiences of consuming cola from smaller compared with larger bottles, to inform intervention strategies.Sixteen households in Cambridge, England, participating in a feasibility study assessing the impact of bottle size on in-home SSB consumption, received a set amount of cola each week for four weeks in one of four bottle sizes: 1500 ml, 1000 ml, 500 ml, or 250 ml, in random order. At the study end, household representatives were interviewed about their experiences of using each bottle, including perceptions of i) consumption level; ii) consumption-related behaviours; and iii) factors affecting consumption. Interviews were semi-structured and data analysed using the Framework approach. The present analysis focuses specifically on experiences relating to use of the smaller bottles.The smallest bottles were described as increasing drinking occasion frequency and encouraging consumption of numerous bottles in succession. Factors described as facilitating their consumption were: i) convenience and portability; ii) greater numbers of bottles available, which hindered consumption monitoring and control; iii) perceived insufficient quantity per bottle; and iv) positive attitudes. In a minority of cases the smallest bottles were perceived to have reduced consumption, but this was related to practical issues with the bottles that resulted in dislike.The perception of greater consumption and qualitative reports of drinking habits associated with the smallest bottles raise the possibility that the ‘portion size effect’ has a lower threshold, beyond which smaller portions and packages may increase consumption. This reinforces the need for empirical evidence to assess the in-home impact of smaller bottles on SSB consumption.
