Abstract: In 1978, the FDA's Division of Consumer Studies inthe Bureau of Foods began a consumer research program on food labeling: the research included a national survey of 1,374 consumers using at-home, face-to-face interviews. Nearly all shoppers are aware of such labeling, but only 75%pay it any attention. The ingredients list, not the nutrition label, is cited as the most important source of food information. The ingredients list is predominatly used to avoid specific substances, i.e. sugar, salt, fats and artifical ingredients. The largest dissatisfaction with foodlabel information is the use of technical and chemical terminology. Labeling changes desired include quantifying the ingredients list (in percentages), including calorie information, and specifying which spices and artifical flavors are used. Fear motivates most attention paid to foodlabels. Details on the sample and the questionnaire are included.

Abstract: Consumer use of food label information, and their need and desire for additional or revised information, is reported. Personal interviews with 1,374 food shoppers in 1978 revealed that although most shoppers are aware of label information, only 75% pay attention to it. The ingredient list is used in avoiding specific substances, such as sugar, salt, preservatives, fats, and artificial colors, for fear of adverse health effects. Participants felt that quantification of ingredients, calorie information, and exhaustive ingredient listing on labels are necessary, but they are displeased with the complexity of the ingredient list. Many participants felt that ingredient information is more important than nutrition information on labels.

Quality foods, such as traditional, EU certified, organic and health claimed are part of a growing trend towards added value in the agri-food sector. In these foods, elements of production, processing, marketing, agro-tourism and speciality stores are combined. Paramount above all is the link to the consumer, which requires a personal approach. At this point, one enters the field of food consumer science. This can be seen as a hybrid of two distinct sciences. On one hand, there is the 'hardware' component, i.e. the science of food. On the other hand, the 'software' component, related to the science of consumers' preferences and behaviour. In animal science, nearly all attention is given to the 'hardware' aspect. However, to build a successful business in quality food products, the 'software' aspect is essential. This publication devotes special attention to the consumer and gives insight into an area of knowledge still very much in development. It is intended to enhance understanding of the complex relationships in the route from products to consumers and offers practical solutions in this field. This publication includes review articles covering basic aspects of food consumer science and research trends in the field, and a series of country reports and articles on relevant studies related to the topic, with emphasis on Southern Europe.
