“…This includes a variety of products, from 3D printed pastries, to 3D printed meat and other products using a blend based on fruits and vegetables. [55][56][57][58] Marketing and regulation The few policy and regulation-oriented studies (n = 18) covered themes such as the use of labeling and healthy food label symbols (such as the Nordic Keyhole) when buying groceries online, [59][60][61] labeling requirements for online food retail, 62,63 other online food sale regulation, 64 health and nutrition claims in restaurant websites or online supermarkets, [65][66][67] as well as policies and other measures (such as self-regulatory ones) on digital food marketing. [68][69][70][71] We did not identify comprehensive analyses of policy measures that address the digitalization of food environments.…”

Food environments are directly linked to diets and health outcomes such as overweight, obesity, and noncommunicable diseases. The digitalization of food environments is becoming a central issue in public health, yet little is known about this emerging field. We performed a systematic scoping review to map the research on the digital food environment and investigate how the eight dimensions of the food environment, according to an established framework (availability, prices, vendor and product properties, marketing and regulation, accessibility, affordability, convenience, and desirability), might be shifting in the context of a digital society. We searched MEDLINE, EMBASE, Scopus, and Web of Science for studies published between 2000 and 2019, using search terms covering digital technology and food environment, which yielded 13,580 unique records. Our analysis of 357 studies shows that digitalization is taking place in all dimensions of the food environment, and enabling the emergence of new forms of buying and selling food, such as online grocery shopping and online food delivery, which may be changing availability of foods and affecting the physical distance to shops and time allocated for shopping. Systematic reviews identified indicated that digital food marketing and social media can influence food choices, preferences and consumption. Our findings suggest that digital and physical food environments are interconnected and influencing one another, but the impact of the digital on health and nutrition is yet unclear.

“…In previous studies, food labelling was shown to be a tool which shapes consumer attitudes and behaviour on the food market influencing decision-making process both at the point of purchase and during food handling at home (Díaz, Fernández-Ruiz, Montaña Cámara, 2020; Latiff et al, 2016). It was noticed that food labelling might facilitate consumers to select the most healthful food options in order to maintain good overall health and reduce the risk of dietrelated diseases (Croker et al, 2020;Fagerstrøm et al, 2019; Lima, Ares, Deliza, 2018; Lundeberg, Graham, Mohr, 2018). Among the elements on the label of food, shelf-life dates, composition, dietary and nutritional value get the most attention (SielickaRóżyńska, Jerzyk, Gluza, 2021; Świda, Halagarda, Popek, 2018).…”

“…Digitalized FOP food labels may be static, interactive, and technology-enabled. Interactive technology may provide detailed product information to consumers, and technology-enabled retailing may provide personalized products for each consumer, dynamic presentations of products that may be changed based on previous purchase history, and provide real-time information where such offers are given immediately [ 13 , 14 ]. These characteristics may be used for digitalized FOP food labels.…”

Front-of-package (FOP) food labels may impact healthy food-related behavior. However, such labels may be presented using new technology and they may impact behavior differently than physical labels. This systematic review investigated the effects of physical and digitalized labels on healthy food-related behavior. This review used four search engines to collect articles that investigated the effects of food labels on the purchase, consumption, hypothetical choice, and self-reports of healthy foods. General findings, types of labels, or whether the articles used physical versus digitalized static, interactive, or technology-enabled labels were synthesized. The dependent variables were categorized according to whether they were under full, partial, or no control of the independent variables. The risk of bias was measured by the RoB 2 tool and adapted Joanna Briggs Institute Checklist. The search strategy identified 285 records and 30 articles were included. While digitalized static and physical labels did not differ in their effects on healthy food-related behavior, technology-enabled labels were more predictive of healthy food-related behavior than interactive labels.
