  • Healthy Food Looks Serious: How Children Interpret Packaged Food Products
    Healthy Food Looks Serious: How Children Interpret Packaged Food Products Charlene D. Elliott University of Calgary Abstract: Fun food is an overlooked, but increasingly significant, category of food targeted to children in the supermarket. These supermarket products empha - size foods’ play factor, interactivity, artificiality, and general distance from “regu - lar” foods: food is positioned as “fun” and eating as “entertainment.” Using a series of focus groups, this study examined how children (segmented by age and gender) interpret these packaged appeals and how the thematic of fun connects with their understanding of health and nutrition. The study revealed that children are highly attuned to fun foods and its packaging, offering savvy, if flawed, inter - pretations of how to determine the healthfulness of a packaged good. I argue that the symbolic positioning of children’s food as fun and fake creates several road - blocks in the quest to promote wholesome food habits in children, and that the thematic of fun has unintended consequences that require careful consideration. Keywords: Food marketing; Food packaging; Children; Childhood obesity; Entertainment; Nutrition; Nutrition literacy Résumé : Au supermarché, les aliments amusants sont une catégorie de nourriture négligée – mais de plus en plus importante – qui cible les enfants. De tels produits mettent l’accent sur l’aspect ludique, interactif et artificiel de la nourriture ainsi que sur leur distance par rapport à la nourriture « normale »; ainsi, ces aliments sont qualifiés d’amusants et manger est un divertissement. Cette étude se fonde sur une série de groupes de discussion pour examiner comment les enfants (divisés par âge et sexe) interprètent ce conditionnement des aliments et comment la thématique du plaisir influence leur compréhension de ce qui est sain et nutritif.
