“…There was an imbalance in all food supply chains, and the main drivers of dietary shifts were disease prevention and better health status [ 2 , 60 , 73 ]. As a result, the pandemic put the world’s population at risk of zoonotic infections spreading to humans through the consumption of food products derived from animals [ 74 ]. The influence of the pandemic on the food chain and on dietary shifts in consumers is represented in Figure 2 .…”

“…As a result, there was a remarkable shift towards plant-based meals and the demand for PBMs increased. During the epidemic, many people shifted to a plant-based diet because they thought it might boost immunity or provide other health benefits in addition to being more economical [ 74 ]. Loh et al [ 52 ] conducted a Google Trends data study and observed that searches for “vegan/veganism” were at an all-time high, and sales of plant-based foods rose during the 2020 pandemic, while those of animal meat and seafood declined due to distrust of meat and seafood.…”

“…The focus should be on preventing, or at least limiting, the usage of wild animals, primarily as a source of food, in order to control future zoonotic diseases. The development and implementation of practical, data-driven solutions should be undertaken in collaboration with international multidisciplinary health authorities and specialists [ 74 ]. In order to promote a healthy diet, well-known governmental organizations, social media, the guidance of health professionals, and the provision of incentives to restaurants, schools, and hospitals to offer plant-based food options could play a significant role [ 52 ].…”

“…Appearance, texture, and flavor are key aspects influencing the acceptance and consumption of products [ 23 , 36 , 47 , 49 , 69 ]. Various studies have found that price, brand name, gender, food neophobia, education and awareness, nutrition, labeling, environmental concerns, and technological information influence the selection of meat or PBM [ 6 , 22 , 25 , 42 , 46 , 54 , 55 , 74 , 75 ]. Consumers remain hesitant to try unfamiliar or new food products, resulting in negative preferences [ 96 ].…”

Dietary habits have a substantial influence on both planet and individual health. High intake of animal products has significant negative effects on the environment and on human health; hence, a reduction in meat consumption is necessary. The transition towards plant-based meat (PBM) is one of the potential solutions for environmental and health issues. To achieve this goal, it is important to understand the dietary habits and demands of consumers. This review was designed with a focus on PBM alternatives, dietary shifts during the COVID-19 pandemic, the drivers of consumers’ perceptions in various countries, and the measures that can promote the shift towards PBM. The PBM market is predicted to grow with rising awareness, familiarity, and knowledge in the coming years. Companies must focus on the categories of anticipated benefits to aid consumers in making the switch to a diet higher in PBM alternatives if they want to win over the target market.

“…Quality, health consciousness, pricing, packaging, availability and door delivery are all important factors in affecting decision behavior toward aroma milk. Hambardzumyan and Gevorgyan (2022) concluded that milk production and sale prices in Armenia have not changed significantly during the limitation era. Maitiniyazi and Canavari (2020) concluded that consumers' confidence in food safety is lowered as a result of a high prevalence of food safety incidents.…”

Purpose This study aims to identify the major factors influencing the consumers to prefer milk products and also to analyze the awareness level of the Indian consumers. Design/methodology/approach In this study, the data is obtained through a structured questionnaire from Indian consumers considering convenience sampling under the nonprobability sampling technique. The consumer preference is explained using a multiple-regression model followed by analysis of variance (ANOVA), which shed insight on the significant differences between the variables that influence consumer preference for dairy products. Findings Investigation is done to analyze the factors influencing the consumers' buying behavior toward milk and its products. The results showed that quality, health consciousness, price and availability are the most influencing factors to buy milk products. Quantity of milk showed a significant relationship between age, monthly income and family size. Research limitations/implications This study helps marketing managers to frame the marketing strategies based on consumer preference, quality, health consciousness, price and availability. The research outcome will not only be advantageous for the entrepreneurial perspective but also takes care of consumer likeliness. Though the research reveals the opinion of Indian consumers, it limits the likeliness of the western world. Because of the scarcity of resources, several dairy products are unexplored, which could pave the future scope of research. Originality/value The novelty of this study is to identify the quality, health consciousness, price and availability are the most influencing factors to buy milk products considering ANOVA and the multiple regression model.
