  • Study on the Establishment of Nutrient Profiling of Pre-Packaged Solid Food
    The Establishment of Nutrient Profiles for Solid Pre-packaged Food in China Abstract Objectives˖To provide scientific and practical criteria for Nutrient Profiles (NP) in China in order to evaluate the overall nutritional quality of solid pre-packaged food according to their nutrient composition. Methods˖Based on data obtained from a survey of experts’ grading of foods available in China, a NP model was established, which covered scope of application, choice and balance of nutrients, choice of benchmarks and algorithm used. Results ˖ A NP model for solid foods was established as a scoring model, the reference amount was 100g. The recommended intake standards were Nutrient Reference Value (NRV) in labeling regulation. Nutrients taken into account included qualifying nutrients (dietary fiber, vitamin C) and disqualifying nutrients (total fat, saturated fatty acid(SFA), sodium). A total score was calculated as (score of dietary fiber + score of vitamin C) – (score of total fat + score of SFA + score of sodium). Foods with a total score ≤-5were qualified as "less healthy", a score of -4 ≤ total score ≤ 2 was "intermediate", and a total score ≥3 indicated "healthier". Conclusions: A NP model for pre-packaged foods in China was established that can be used to assess and compare the impact of different foods on diet, and help decide which pre-packaged foods are qualified to carry nutrition and health claims. Key words˖Nutrient Profiles, Nutritional Quality, Solid Pre-packaged Food Introduction The global burden of chronic non-communicable diseases is increasing tremendously [1]. Many studies show that an unhealthy dietary pattern is one of the main risk factors contributing to chronic diseases.

  • La Maison Ladurée
    LLLa Maison Ladurée L’histoire des salons de thé parisiens est intimement liée à l’histoire de la famille Ladurée. Tout a commencé en 1862, lorsque Louis Ernest Ladurée, homme du sud-ouest, minotier de son état, crée une boulangerie au 16, rue Royale à Paris. En 1871, alors que le Baron Haussmann donne un nouveau visage à Paris, un incendie permet la transformation de la boulangerie en pâtisserie. La décoration de cette pâtisserie est confiée à Jules Cheret, célèbre peintre affichiste de la fin du siècle, qui s’inspire des techniques picturales utilisées pour les plafonds de la Chapelle Sixtine et de l’Opéra Garnier. Sous le second empire, avec le développement des cafés parisiens, Jeanne Souchard, épouse d’Ernest Ladurée, fille d’un célèbre hôtelier de Rouen a l’idée de mélanger les genres : le café et la pâtisserie, donnant naissance à l’un des premiers salons de thé parisiens. Le salon de thé a un avantage certain sur les cafés : celui de pouvoir accueillir les femmes en toute liberté… Ce lieu à l’atmosphère raffinée et chargée d’histoire séduit David Holder et son père Francis, fondateur du groupe Holder. Ils décident de racheter puis de promouvoir et d’agrandir la célèbre Maison. Son Président, David Holder s’attache à rétablir les grands classiques qui ont fait la réputation de la maison et à en faire un des hauts lieux de la création pâtissière à Paris, au sein de ses boutiques et ses différents salons de thé, restaurants. LLLadurée The story of Parisian tearooms is intimately linked to the Ladurée family story.

  • An Empirical Study on the Influence of Social Networks and Menu Labeling on Calorie
    An Empirical Study on the Influence of Social Networks and Menu Labeling on Calorie Intake in a University Dining Hall by Dan Wang A Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Science Approved May 2014 by the Graduate Supervisory Committee: Carola Grebitus, Chair Christiane Schroeter Mark Manfredo Renee Hughner ARIZONA STATE UNIVERSITY August 2014 ABSTRACT Obesity is a major health problem for both adults and children. It is particularly important for college students to focus on weight management due to weight persistence from adolescent to adult. This study analyzes the influence of peer effects and menu labeling on calorie intake at a university dining hall with posted nutrition facts. Data were collected at the Citrus Dining Hall on Polytechnic Campus of Arizona State University by means of a questionnaire. Groups of four members each were interviewed for a total of 112 individual observations. The results show that individuals who are dining in a group with at least one obese member consume more calories. Also food-related interactions in a group influence the amount of calorie consumption regarding pizza and pasta. Looking at nutrition facts when ordering the food decreases the amount of calories but the effects of menu labeling on calorie intake are not amplified through peer effects. The strength of ties indicated by closeness does not significantly influence calorie intake. There is a need for future research in which more approaches related to social networks need to be tested regarding healthy diets. i DEDICATION I would like to dedicate my thesis to my husband, Bo Li, and my son, Eric Zexin Li.
