Summary In order to tackle climate change and the increased prevalence of non-communicable diseases, a transformation of human diets is urgently needed. The food retailers can play an important role if integrating sustainability related aspects in their corporate portfolio decisions in order to influence the consumer to make more sustainable food choices. This master thesis focuses on dietary habits in the light of portfolio management with guidance from a decision-making tool (Cynefin). If focus on principles to identify food alternatives with lower climate impact and higher nutritional value of dishes that are frequently prepared in a home setting. Their understandings are integrated in portfolio management strategies for sustainable development. It was conducted as a commission from Axfood’s private label brand Garant, which also serves as the case study. The empirical data consists of sales statistics, nutritional guidelines, nutritional content and calculated carbon dioxide equivalents. The results show that commonly consumed dishes exceed goals for climate boundaries and they are nutritionally inadequate. In order to reach targets related to nutritional guidelines and climate impact goals, the content of animal-based products needs to be reduced. Furthermore, vegetables and whole grains need to be increased. The findings of the study provide opportunities to integrate climate and health aspects further in the portfolio management of Garant. Changing dietary habits and integrating sustainability in portfolio management is not a clear and simple road. Rather, it needs to be shaped in accordance to the context of the specific corporation. The results show that integration of sustainability alters the retailer owned brand portfolio management decisions. Sammanfattning För att hantera klimatförändringen och den ökade förekomsten av icke-smittsamma sjukdomar, behöver vi förändra våra matvanor. Dagligvaruhandels aktörer, i synnerhet livsmedelsbutikers handlare kan spela en stor roll om de interagerar hållbarhetsrelaterade frågor i deras företagsverksamhet för att influera kunden till mer hållbara val. Den här masteruppsatsen fokuserar på matvanor i ljuset av portföljförvaltning med guidning av ett beslutsfattande verktyg (Cynefin). Fokus ligger på principer för att identifiera livsmedelsalternativ med lägre klimatpåverkan och högre näringsvärde i maträtter som ofta tillagas i en hemmiljö, och hur dessa kan integreras i portföljhanteringsstrategier. Studien genomfördes på uppdrag av företrädare för Axfoods egna märkesvara Garant, vilket också representerar fallet i studien. Den empiriska datan bygger på säljstatistik, nutritionella riktlinjer, näringsinnehåll och koldioxidekvivalenter. Resultatet visar att maträtter ofta tillagade i en hemmiljö överskrider klimatpåverkansmål och är näringsmässigt inadekvata. För att nå mål i nutritionella riktlinjer och klimatpåverkan, behöver innehållet av animalie-baserade produkter minskas. Vidare behöver andelen grönsaker och fullkorn öka. Resultaten av studien erbjuder vidare möjligheter att integrera klimat- och hälsoaspekter i Garants portföljförvaltning. Att ändra matvanor och integrera hållbarhet i portföljförvaltning är inte enkelt. Istället behöver det anpassas efter den specifika företagskontexten. Resultaten indikerar att integrering av hållbarhet påverkar besluten som görs inom livsmedelshandelns varumärkesportföljer. Popular-scientific summary Food habits in the food retailer industry - for a healthier planet and people Our planet is facing fast evolving climate changes presenting major threats to our ecosystems, different species, food safety and living environments. Additionally, the prevalence of heart diseases, cancer, diabetes type 2 and stroke is increasingly causing premature deaths and major economic pressure on our society around the globe. To turn this situation around, dietary habits need to change urgently. Identification of dishes commonly prepared in Swedish households offers possibilities for marketing, improving or innovating products of a private label brand to influence consumer behavior. Changing consumer behavior is a challenge as it is highly affected by personal and societal habits. Therefore, we identified ten dishes that customers commonly prepare at home, and how these can be used to guide the consumer to more sustainable food choices in the case of a private label brand. In this study, the sustainability focus was on health aspects and climate impact. As a part of the master thesis, the dishes were altered to be in line with the Nordic Nutrition Recommendations and climate impact boundaries set by the WWF. Our study showed that commonly made dishes exceeded goals for climate impact and they were also nutrient poor, which challenges the health of both the planet and people. From a nutritional perspective, the total content of fat and saturated fat was too high. They were also poor in fiber, whole grains, fruit and vegetables. Diets rich in vegetables, fruits, fiber, whole grain contribute to lower risk of heart diseases, different varieties of cancer, diabetes type 2, overweight and obesity. By replacing some of the saturated fat found in for e.g. pastries, animal-based products, ice cream with unsaturated fat from e.g. olive oil, rapeseed oil, nuts and seeds, the risk of developing heart disease decreases. In order to reduce climate impact and improve nutritional qualities in the dishes, animal-based products were reduced or to some extent exchanged to plant-based alternatives. Vegetables and whole grains were also added to increase the nutrient content. To identify the commonly made dishes, we used sales statistics from Axfood’s stores Hemköp and Willys, based on consumer purchases during the year 2019. With sales statistics we could define what the customers bought and, through association purchases, see what kind of dishes they were most likely to prepare in their home settings. The results provided valuable information on customer purchase behavior. Knowledge about what meals customers most likely cook based on their purchases, gives possibilities to influence them to

Examensarbetet avslutar en tvåårig högskoleutbildning i Livsmedelsteknik vid Lunds Tekniska Högskola. Då personer och företag på olika sätt har varit inblandade i arbetet vill vi tacka samtliga företag och personer. Ett speciellt tack riktas till vår handledare Maria Glantz och vår examinator Ia Rosenlind för allt stöd under arbetets gång. Vi vill även rikta tack till följande personer, som har ägnat tid åt oss genom intervjuer och försedd information: ● Nils Österström med personal på Tebrito. ● Peter Andersson, Solina. ● Anders Engström, Bug Burger ● Mårten Carlsson, Lindvalls Chark Lund 2021-05-18 Stort tack för all hjälp! Marcus Jacobsen Mattias Stenström Sammanfattning Det är nu tillåtet att sälja mjölmask (Tenebrio molitor) för livsmedelskonsumtion och troligen kommer den att spela en stor roll i sökandet av framtidens proteinkällor. Mjölmaskens klimatavtryck är avsevärt mindre än för traditionella boskap och är därför av intresse. Insekter som människoföda är ett ganska oexploaterat område i Sverige och västvärlden. I samband med den nya lagstiftningen uppstod ett intresse till att bygga vårt examensarbete kring denna produkt. Syftet med arbetet var att produktutveckla ett isterband där den konventionella proteinkällan var utbytt mot insekter för att avslutningsvis med hjälp av en testpanel få ett betyg för produktens helhetsupplevelse som livsmedel. Syftet var dessutom att jämföra näringsvärden och klimatpåverkan med traditionella isterband och dess traditionella proteinkällor.

Fermented Meat Products: Production and Consumption By Professor Herbert W. Ockerman and Lopa Basu The Ohio State University, Columbus, OH, USA I. Introduction Meat fermentation is a low energy, biological acidulation, preservation method which results in unique and distinctive meat properties such as flavour and palatability, colour, microbiological safety, tenderness, and a host of other desirable attributes of this specialized meat item. Changes from a raw meat to a fermented product are caused by “cultured” or “wild” microorganisms which lower the pH. Since this is a biological system, it is influenced by many environmental pressures that need to be controlled to produce a consistent product.

Consumer-led product development is developed from the wish to fill the consumer’s needs and expectations and thereby be more likely to succeed. Lindell’s Gårdsslakteri AB is a local slaughter and meat processor in Västergötland. They wish to ex- pand their meat product assortment with a new product that fits into their otherwise traditional and quality oriented supply. A market survey led into the idea of developing a fermented sau- sage. The manufacturing of fermented sausage is complex with many parameters to consider producing a tasteful, visually attractive and safe sausage. Typical for all fermented sausages are the combination of lactic acid, salting and drying.

For the surveillance of food habits, consumption of foods and intake of nutrients, the food database is a prerequisite. It is also used in processing food consumption data from epidemiological studies and for calculating nutrient intake of individuals in the field of food guidance. Consequently, there is a great need for the food composition database to contain correct and appropriate information. At the NFA massive resources have been spent on developing a food database fulfilling these demands. A step towards this target is to complete the database with more nutrient losses and gains factors. Ms L. Bergström at the Nutrition Division, has made a great effort in compiling, organizing and publishing this document on Nutrient Losses and Gains in the preparation of foods, together with the reports on NLG References and Yields for foods and dishes.
