  • Should We Use Popular Brands to Promote Healthy Eating Among Children?
    Public Health Nutrition: 13(12), 2064–2067 doi:10.1017/S1368980010000893 Should we use popular brands to promote healthy eating among children? Ingibjorg Gunnarsdottir1,2,* and Inga Thorsdottir1,2 1Unit for Nutrition Research, University of Iceland and Landspitali University Hospital, Eiriksgata 29, 101 Reykjavik, Iceland: 2Faculty of Food Science and Nutrition, School of Health Sciences, University of Iceland, Vatnsmyrarvegur 16, 101 Reykjavik, Iceland Submitted 19 August 2009: Accepted 16 March 2010: First published online 4 May 2010 Abstract Objective: Studies indicate that food and beverages typically marketed to children are products high in fat, sugar and salt. LazyTown is an entertainment brand with a focus on healthy lifestyle, aimed at making health education entertaining. The aim of the present study was to assess whether children perceive food to taste better with a LazyTown label on the wrapping compared with the original packaging. Design: Five pairs of identical food and beverage samples were introduced. We aimed to select healthy food and beverages from various food groups. Preference for the LazyTown food was coded as 11, no preference 0 and preference for the original food as 21. An average ‘preference score’ was calculated for each subject by adding up the answers. Setting: Three pre-schools in the Greater Reykjavik area, Iceland. Subjects: Subjects were pre-school children aged 3?5 to 6 years (n 66). Results: Most children answered correctly that there was no difference in the taste between the two identical food samples. However, between 27 and 42 % (depending on the product) of children preferred the taste of LazyTown food and beverages despite the fact that the test food was identical.
