TL;DR: In order to make meat substitutes more attractive to meat consumers, it would not recommend to focus on communication of ethical arguments, but to significantly improve the sensory quality and resemblance to meat.

TL;DR: Investigation of the effect of implementation intentions on eating behavior found that higher quality outcome measures and lower quality control conditions tended to yield stronger effects, although for some studies promoting healthy eating effect sizes may have been inflated due to less than optimal control conditions.

TL;DR: In this article, a review focusing on the period ranging from the beginning of complementary feeding until the age of 3 years is presented, where the authors evaluate to what extent international and national feeding guidelines cover the relevant themes in the most recent literature on the development of healthy eating habits in this period.

TL;DR: The Danish case illustrates that the government needs to actively implement reforms and promote activities which make organic products a convenient choice for the pragmatic oriented consumer if their market share is to increase substantially.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that repeatedly practicing inhibitory control over food-related responses can help people regain control over the consumption of high calorie food.

TL;DR: An overview of habit research is provided and possibilities to increase the role of habits in eating behaviour are discussed, showing that interventions targeting habitual behaviour can try to change the situation that triggers the habitual behaviour, promote or inhibit the habitual response and change relevant contingencies.

TL;DR: Examination of consumer attention to and use of three different nutrition labeling schemes (logo, multiple traffic-light label, and nutrition table) shows that although consumers evaluate the nutrition table most positively, it receives little attention and does not stimulate healthy choices.

TL;DR: The evidence suggests that the context of an authoritative parenting and feeding style is associated with better FV consumption in the childhood years, accompanied by specific feeding practices such as modeling consumption of FV.

TL;DR: In two between-subject studies, people's perceptions of others who follow omnivorous and vegetarian diets are investigated, controlling for the perceived healthiness of the diets in question.

TL;DR: The goal of this paper is to provide a brief overview on the role of dietary fibres in appetite regulation highlighting the importance of viscosity.

TL;DR: While both careless and conservative/uninvolved consumers valued convenience, the former tended to be in the highest income group, while the latter were in the lowest, were more likely to be either in the youngest or oldest age groups, and were very concerned about food safety and health.

TL;DR: Findings in healthy subjects indicate that tDCS is able to temporarily reduce food cravings and improve the self-reported ability to resist foods.

TL;DR: The Baby Eating Behaviour Questionnaire is the first standardised measure of infant appetite designed to characterise appetitive traits that might confer susceptibility to excess weight gain.

TL;DR: It is hypothesized that adolescents misperceive social norms for food consumption, and aimed to test this, and examine associations between perceived norms and dietary behaviours, andcriptive norms indicated that misperceptions of peers' food intake were associated with respondents' own intake.

TL;DR: Sensory appeal is the most important factor among all European consumers, while health, convenience and price were all among the five most important factors shaping food choice in Belgium, Hungary and Romania.

TL;DR: Analyses examining weight status as the outcome variable revealed that mothers who reported the use of food to soothe had heavier children, however, this relationship was stronger for children rated as high in temperamental negativity.

TL;DR: The present review summarizes the evidence which collectively raise the possibility of propionate as a dietary factor to depress appetite and combat the obesity epidemic.

TL;DR: It is suggested that fast-food consumption is influenced by specific referent groups as well as a general demand for meals that are tasty, satisfying, and convenient, and appear to override concerns about longer-term health risks associated with fast food.

TL;DR: This study investigated relationships between external eating, impulsivity and attentional bias to food cues, assessed using the pictorial visual-probe task to highlight the relationship between the ability to control impulsive responding and selective attention toFood cues.

TL;DR: It was showed that when foods can be ingested rapidly, food and energy intake is high, and people may be at risk of overconsumption, when consuming foods with a high eating rate.

TL;DR: It is suggested that the act of categorizing an animal as 'food' may diminish their perceived capacity to suffer, which dampens moral concern, which in turn dampens the authors' moral concern.

TL;DR: Results suggest that obese patients have a general inhibition problem and difficulty focusing attention, which do not depend on the types of stimuli processed, which indicates that there is a continuum of increasing inhibition and cognitive problems with increasingly disordered eating.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the relationship between psychological stress and chronic disease in Puerto Rican adults living in the Boston, Massachusetts area and found that greater perceived stress was associated with lower fruit, vegetable, and protein intake, greater consumption of salty snacks, and lower participation in physical activity.

TL;DR: The significant contribution of maternal feeding practices, which are potentially modifiable behaviours, suggests that the feeding interactions of parents and their children should be targeted for intervention and the prevention of feeding difficulties during early childhood.

TL;DR: Higher child BMI was related to more food approach eating behaviours but BMI was unrelated to child temperament, while Shyness, sociability and activity were not related to children's eating behaviours.

TL;DR: Results suggest that hyper-responsivity of somatosensory, gustatory, and reward valuation regions may be related to overeating and that top-down processing influence reward encoding, which could further contribute to weight gain.

TL;DR: Expected satiation of dairy products increased consistently with increasing thickness; flavor characteristics or means of consumption as tested did not change expected satiation effects.

TL;DR: Investigating consumers' crossmodal associations between the color of packaging and flavor varieties in crisps revealed that consumers responded more slowly, and made more errors, when they had to pair the color and flavor that they implicitly thought of as being "incongruent" with the same response key.
