    Notes: Statistics show an increase in the number of family outbreaks offood poisoning. Contends that many handling techniques necessary toprevent outbreaks of food-borne disease are unknown, misunderstood andnot followed in the home. Some food preparation operations are morefrequently implicated in outbreaks of food poisoning than others. Arguesthat instead of promoting general compliance with the food hygieneprinciples of good catering practice, the food safety educator shouldfocus the attention of the consumer on those factors which are criticalto safety of the product. Suggests that essential safe food handlingtechniques could be incorporated into recipes in magazines and cookerybooks which are used by many consumers. Presents a systematic approachto analysing recipes for potential hazards, based on the HACCP system;illustrates the approach with a relevant example.

    Notes: Outlines a health promotion programme run in conjunction with a local Asda supermarket in Ayr. The event focused on the store itself. Community dietitians were available for specific advice, and a team of student dietitians conducted evaluations, circulated special discount coupons, and handed out health promotion material. Throughout the store there were specific health messages following NACNE and COMA report guidelines. A treasure hunt and food pyramid both acted as additional activities for customers. Publicity prior to the event included local radio and press advertising. The event was evaluated as a success and shoppers said they would like more such events.

    Notes: Diets, notably diets aimed at weight reduction, appear regularly in women's general interest magazines. Recently there has also been an increase in publications aimed at health promotion or slimming, and in the availability of "slimming aids". The efficacy of some of these has been questioned, and concern expressed over the nutritional adequacy of some diets. Investigates the nutritional adequacy of nine diets drawn from a variety of publications. Most diets were aimed at weight loss, but some were promoted as a "new way of life", e.g. food combining. Energy levels supplied by all diets were below current recommendations, thus weight reduction would be the result of low energy intakes. Overall, the nutritional value of the diets was reasonable.The main concern was low iron intakes supplied by the Food Combining for Health diet, where the diet is followed for long periods.

    How fats and carbohydrates in familiar foods contribute to everyday satiety by their sensory and physiological actions (1996)
    Bingley : Emerald
    Nutrition & food science 96 (1996), S. 37-43 
    Details
    ISSN: 0034-6659
    Source: Emerald Fulltext Archive Database 1994-2005
    Topics: Agriculture, Forestry, Horticulture, Fishery, Domestic Science, Nutrition , Process Engineering, Biotechnology, Nutrition Technology
    Notes: Duodenal action of rapidly digested carbohydrate can induce an intense satiation shortly after the meal, which conditions down the volume of food eaten in the later part of the meal. In contrast, after a meal rich in spreading fat, separation of fat above the aqueous contents of the stomach is liable to delay the fat's emptying and hence its contact with satiety receptors in the small intestine; eaters are therefore unlikely to learn to eat less of a menu rich in separated fat. Yet the delayed emptying may prolong the period of digestion and absorption of separated fat beyond that for the same amount of fat emulsified or bound in the aqueous phase. Hence, separating fat might help to delay better the rise of appetite for the next meal several hours later. These ideas explain some of the diversity of claims about satiation from fats in foods. Observes how individuals learn from the post-ingestional effects on appetite of variants of the foods they choose routinely.

    Healthy eating for children under two years - just what is appropriate? (1997)

    Notes: Nutrition is one of the critical factors which influence health, growth and development among small children, but which also affects the health of those children when they become adults. Attitudes towards foods are often determined very early in life and the promotion of "healthy" eating patterns among all age groups depends partly on understanding the factors which influence food choice decision making and the factors which determine attitudes towards food and food choice. Food choice, however, is still often characterized by an "all or nothing" approach, whereas a balance which allows a child to feel "normal" while healthy eating patterns are discretely promoted is often of greater long-term benefit. This article highlights some recent controversies in nutrition for very young children and indicates what recent research in this area means in practice.

    Notes: Dietary phytoestrogens are currently being extensively investigated because of the possibility that they may protect against disease. Soya isoflavones, in particular, are attracting considerable attention because there is increasing evidence that they may protect against breast and prostate cancers and heart disease and osteoporosis. Considers the evidence for disease prevention by phytoestrogens and the biological mechanisms by which they may act. Explores dietary sources of phytoestrogens and the production of both traditional and non-traditional soya foods. Considers the potential hazards of dietary phytoestrogens, including their use in infant formulas and associated, possibly harmful, developmental effects, and the possibility that they may display the harmful oestrogenic effects of oral contraceptives by increasing risk of deep vein thrombosis (blood clots). Finally, assesses the benefits versus the risk of dietary phytoestrogens.

    Topics: Agriculture, Forestry, Horticulture, Fishery, Domestic Science, Nutrition , Process Engineering, Biotechnology, Nutrition Technology
    Notes: Reviews the potential impact of processing procedures on carotenoid form and content. Fruit and vegetables, in particular, are abundant sources of carotenoids in the diet. Many fruit and vegetables are subjected to various types of processing prior to consumption. Fruit may be canned, dried or processed into juices, while vegetables may be blanched, dehydrated, frozen, canned and also processed into juices. Factors such as heat, light and oxygen exposure may have detrimental effects (including destruction and isomerization, with loss of vitamin A activity), while some procedures may bring benefits (such as increased unit content and retention, breakdown of inhibitory structures and enhanced bioavailability). Concludes that the extent and nature of processing can have a significant impact on the form and content of carotenoids in processed fruit and vegetables.

Particularly considers a range of factors relating to the carrying out of such an investigation, including recruitment of patients, type of dietary survey, duration of survey and implications of the Food Safety Act. Concludes that problems relating to nutrition in hospital are complex and relate not only to the food itself but also to factors such as the delivery of the food.

    Notes: Individuals who ascend to altitude too rapidly invariably develop acute mountain sickness (AMS) although a high carbohydrate diet may lessen these symptoms. Specific questions addressed in this study were: changes in diet prior to sojourning at altitude; changes in food consumption/nutritional intake, food acceptability, flavour and taste intensities. Nineteen subjects assembled for three days at sea level for baseline measurements consuming a diet of dehydrated rations. This regimen was repeated 18 days later in the Bolivian Andes at approximately 5,600m once subjects were acclimatised. Results confirm a common phenomenon; a reduced dietary intake and body weight loss at high altitude. Other results, flavour and taste intensities and overall food acceptability indicate the suitability of these foods in both environments.

    Notes: The issues of microbial food poisoning are never far from the headlines. Of particular concern is the emergence of strains of increased virulence, for example Escherichia coli 0157. As we are likely to be faced with a succession of food hygiene challenges in our kitchens, do consumers have access to the information they need and is it presented in such a way that it encourages and motivates towards good food handling and food hygiene practices? This paper concentrates on a range of food hygiene information provided by the Government, the Health Education Authority and the media. The information is examined with respect to availability, content and context. Observations are made from sociological, scientific and visual communications perspectives.

    Notes: A review of the food safety implications of crops contaminated by mycotoxins. Each of the most important mycotoxins, aflatoxins, ochratoxin A, and patulin, are described individually with details of national and international safety evaluations and the UK's controls to protect consumer safety. The state of play of EC proposals to harmonise national laws on mycotoxins is also described. Consumer perceptions of risk from these natural toxicants are assessed. Mycotoxins present a potential threat to consumer safety. Continued vigilance is necessary to ensure that regulatory and advisory limits are complied with. MAFF surveys regularly check the foods most at risk of contamination and where a problem is unearthed, consumers and industry are alerted as soon as possible through rapid publication procedures. Subsequent monitoring of the situation ensures that effective action is taken to protect consumer safety.

    Notes: The paper describes the results of consumer research undertaken by the Co-operative Wholesale Society which influenced it to develop a code of practice for labelling pre-packed foods. Areas where consumers feel they are misled by current labelling practice are highlighted. The content of the code is described against a background of current legal requirements. Its principal areas of application concern the name of the food, origin marking, presentation, nutrition labelling and claims and quantitative ingredient declaration. The further development of the code is outlined by reference to industry and consumer contributions and its potential within the Food Standards Agency.

    Notes: Discusses the financial implications of maintaining acceptable levels of food safety. The case of BSE is used as an example - loss of export market, fall in domestic sales, changes in consumption, large expenditure, cost of practice changes in rearing and slaughtering animals. There is a trade-off between safety and costs. How much safety can be expected? There must be an optimum level of safety. There are few ways in which a market economy can "fail" in providing the optimum - asymmetry in knowledge of risks; aspects of food safety which are public goods; social costs of food safety and the divergence between objective scientific evidence and consumer perception.

    Topics: Agriculture, Forestry, Horticulture, Fishery, Domestic Science, Nutrition , Process Engineering, Biotechnology, Nutrition Technology
    Notes: The aim of the present study was to reveal if sensory properties of smoked food could be considered as decisive in the determination of one product's preference over another. In addition to this, this work tries to clarify whether the flavour obtained in commercial smoked products was noticed and clearly recognized. This study consisted of two parts; first, a preference testing without physical products (recalled preference) presented using a nine-point hedonic scale, and second, a difference testing with selected products using the triangular test. Consumers showed a preference for non-smoked products, particularly for cheese, sausages and chips. The first preference dimension of the internal preference mapping (MDPREF) analysis accounted for 74.6 per cent of total variation indicating overall agreement about likings relating these products, with cheese being the most acceptable overall. Analyzing triangular test results it may be concluded that other factors but sensory ones must be defining consumer representations of smoked food, without a correspondence with its real organoleptic properties.

    Notes: A three-year consumer research programme, using both qualitative and quantitative techniques, was undertaken to assess whether additional voluntary nutrition information for calories and fat would aid consumers' ability to use the nutrition information that is given on food packs. A variety of label formats was investigated. The research established that providing information for calories and fat per serving, either separately from the nutrition panel or highlighted within the nutrition panel, and providing Guideline Daily Amounts (GDAs) for calories and fat helped to make the nutrition information more accessible to consumers. GDAs were felt by consumers to be new and useful information. The research findings were developed into voluntary industry guidelines by an IGD working group consisting of representatives of manufacturers, retailers, consumer organizations, nutrition scientists and government. The guidelines represent best practice for industry.

    Notes: The purpose of this study was to determine body composition, energy balance and tendencies towards eating disorders of female competitive athletes in two countries, USA and Greece. Data were collected using similar methodology in both countries during the non-competitive (training) and the competitive seasons. Forty-two athletes and 11 controls in the USA and 35 athletes and ten controls in Greece participated in the study. Comparison of the results between the countries showed that US athletes weighed more than Greek athletes but there was no significant difference in the percentage of body fat between the two groups. No significant differences were found in the energy intakes between athletes in either country. Athletes appeared to be in negative energy balance (-380 to -580 kcals daily) in both seasons, in both countries.

    Notes: A survey of 12 residential homes assessed the nutritional balance of the meals selected and consumed by the elderly residents. With the increasing age of the population and the demand for professional care there is an increasing pressure on the professional caterer and carer to meet the nutritional needs of those in their care. However the ongoing concern over the safety of various foods and the requirement for residential homes to remain within budget can have an impact on the food offered to and consumed by the elderly person. The results show a general satisfaction by the consumer with the food supplied but the research indicates that the meals are not generally nutritionally balanced. The overall concern of the providers is to remain within budget and any nutritional balance of meals is obtained more by accident than as a planned policy. If this is an indication of the situation in Northern Ireland there is the possibility that throughout the United Kingdom there may be similar widespread imbalance in the nutritional provision to the older members of the population.

    Notes: The role of diet in contributing to the incidence of coronary heart disease, cancer and other common Western diseases is attracting increasing attention. Foods which provide different biologically active compounds, such as phyto-oestrogens, have been extensively studied and epidemiological evidence suggests that populations consuming a diet high in phyto-oestrogens have a lower risk of these diseases. This paper reviews some of the key studies on soy isoflavones which suggest that the incorporation of soy protein into the British diet may offer important health benefits. Non-steroidal dietary oestrogens are found in high concentrations in the traditional diets of the Far East, and by vegans who consume large amounts of soy protein. Consumption of isoflavones across Asia varies considerably and it is estimated that between 25 to 45mg of isoflavones is consumed daily, compared to as little as 5mg daily in Western countries. It is well established that modification of dietary fat, especially saturated fat, soluble fibre and total calories have a role in coronary heart disease risk. In a meta-analysis of 38 controlled trials on soy proteins, it was concluded that significant reductions in serum and total LDL cholesterol could be achieved. A wide range of epidemiological data shows strong correlations between a diet high in soy protein and vegetables and a reduced risk of breast cancer. The incidence of osteoporosis in Japanese women is significantly lower than in Western women and dietary factors such as soy protein intake may be important in sustaining this protection.

    Notes: The links between diet, bacteria and colonic cancer are examined in this article. Studies suggest that high intakes of fat and protein are associated with elevated risk of colonic cancer whereas cereals, fruits and vegetables seem to be protective. A further aspect considered in relation to this type of cancer is metabolism by gut bacteria. Probiotics, prebiotics and synbiotics are presented as ways of stimulating the activities, certain gut flora and the use of "functional foods" is also discussed.

    Notes: A new National Diet and Nutrition Survey was published in October 1998, by the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food and the Department of Health, which reported on the dietary intake and nutritional status of people over 65 years of age in the UK. This survey provided data on 1,275 free-living people and 412 people in residential care. Along with the information on diet and nutritional status are data on anthropometric and biochemical parameters. A second related survey looked at dental health in this age group. The key findings of these surveys and the public health implications for older people are discussed.

    Notes: Antibiotics are used in animals to cure disease and prevent suffering. Bacterial populations in animals which are exposed to these antibiotics may be selected for resistance. There is a concern that spread of these bacteria in the food chain to humans may result in the establishment of antibiotic resistant bacteria in people which will prove difficult or impossible to treat with conventional drugs. It is clear that antibiotics must be used carefully to reduce the development of resistance and that steps should be taken to reduce the transfer of bacteria from animals to man.

    Notes: Few studies have concentrated on the food choices of young people and the potential influences, yet the food choices established in these early years can determine the diet and quality of health in later life. This study investigates the diet and food choices of 9-17-year olds in Northern Ireland and considers the potential effects of age, gender and socio-economic grouping. A range of research methods was implemented including observations, questionnaires and diet based case studies. The observations, in five schools, indicated the types of foods being chosen whilst the questionnaires further investigated this initial information along with other factors, to obtain more detailed data. A total of 764 questionnaires were administered to young people and 516 to parents to facilitate comparison. In-depth diet based case studies also took place evaluating the diets of 14 young people. The research indicated that this group have a diet which continues to cause concern.

    Notes: Outlines the numerous messages sent to consumers regarding healthy eating practices and indicates the problems involved in determining whether or not the British consumer has adopted a nutritious and healthy diet. Research was undertaken which measured individuals' involvement in healthy eating issues and related this to several demographic characteristics. The research indicates some variation in involvement in healthy eating according to demographic variables but the results were not statistically significant. Group discussions were also conducted which confirmed that the healthy eating messages were widely received and understood; however, there was some confusion over their content, scepticism regarding the veracity and motivation of some sources and a growing resentment of boring and puritanical themes. In the future care must be taken to produce clear, simple and positive healthy eating messages to the public if trends towards a more nutritious diet are to continue.

    Notes: Much of the debate surrounding genetic modification has centred on food product ingredients, in particular soya derivatives, and the supposed inability to segregate GM from non-GM soybeans. Protein Technologies International has, however, implemented a system, Identity Preservation, which ensures the delivery of non-GM soy protein to its customers. The system covers seeds, on-farm storage, planting, growing and harvesting, transportation, processing and distribution, with independent third-party verification. It is, believes the company, a way of ensuring that consumers can obtain the health benefits of soy protein consumption even if they are actively avoiding GM ingredients.

    Speciality and artisanal cheeses today: the product and the consumer (1998)

    Source: Emerald Fulltext Archive Database 1994-2005
    Topics: Agriculture, Forestry, Horticulture, Fishery, Domestic Science, Nutrition
    Notes: This paper aims to identify and describe the determinants of consumer attitudes towards artisanal cheeses within the speciality cheese market and the reasons behind the growing interest in this premium value sector as evinced by two surveys of specialist food retailers and artisanal cheese consumers. The survey results obtained are presented in the context of a changing consumption culture and the concept of an emerging "postmodern" consumerism. Artisanal cheese consumers focus on the unique characteristics of the products and their distinctive character in relation to mass produced industrial cheeses. Price and functional properties of artisanal cheeses are less important in the consumer purchase decision. Artisanal cheese consumers are characterised by "variety seeking" behaviour. This is stimulated by the broad range of available flavours, tastes and cheese types and suggests a low degree of brand or even cheese-type loyalty among such consumers. The "plural" nature of the "speciality" cheese market accommodates well the highly individual and fragmented requirements of consumers of artisanal cheeses.

    The effects of blind substitution of aspartame-sweetened for sugar-sweetened soft drinks on appetite and mood (1998)

    Notes: It has been suggested that habitual consumers of sugar experience "cravings" when deprived. Subjects (n = 27) who habitually consumed sugar-sweetened drinks were placed on a seven-day regime receiving either sugar-sweetened drinks, or aspartame-sweetened alternatives. A between-subjects design was used to prevent subjects comparing the drinks, which were given blind with the cover story that the study was testing a new drink. In fact commercial carbonated beverages were given. At the end, subjects were unable to guess which they had received. Subjects completed a prospective food diary and rated mood daily using the Profile of Mood States, as well as before and after each test drink, using simple visual analogue scales. Compared to subsequent days, on the first day of the study subjects receiving aspartame-sweetened drinks ate fewer grams of carbohydrate and had fewer sugar episodes (where sugars, or sugar-fat, or sugar-alcohol mixtures were consumed). Overall energy intake for the day was unaffected. By day two, there were no differences between the groups in diet or mood. Body weight at seven days was unaltered from baseline. Blind substitution of aspartame-sweetened for sugar-sweetened soft drinks did not increase other sugar consumption and did not adversely affect mood. Any effects of this dietary change appear transient.

    Notes: The paper analyses data from the British Health and Lifestyles Survey of 1984/5 and the follow-up survey of 1992. It attempts to break down a large number of food consumption patterns into a smaller number of interpretable factors or tastes which are then used in statistical regression models to analyse the determinants and changes in the strengths of these tastes over time. The results show that the nature of change has been contradictory when looked at from a health-based perspective. Some tastes are changing in a healthier direction, while others are not. Social class, age, and gender are all shown to be significant determinants of taste in both time periods.

    Notes: The study reports on a small-scale survey of teenagers' preferences for a selection of pre-prepared foods sold by the school cash cafeteria, nutritional knowledge towards fat, attitudes to nutritional labelling of school food and their intended change in eating behaviour prompted by nutritional labelling. Results suggest that the provision of simple nutritional labelling information on school meals in cash cafeterias in secondary schools could have a positive influence on children's choices of fat in school food and be a valuable educational resource to help in the long-term aim of reducing fat consumption for the whole UK population.

    Notes: Describes the life history of the British Food Journal, its changing editorial team, ownership and editorial focus. The authors have used much wider source material than the archives of the journal, now in its 100th year. The journal was always closely identified with the safety of food, its adulteration and the government's duty to safeguard the public. The second section reviews the profession and role of the public analyst, in particular the history and development of the Society of Public Analysts. The next and longest section of the monograph is devoted to an interesting examination of food safety, nutrition and food manufacturing issues over the last 100 years. Many of the points raised are illustrated by excerpts from papers written in BFJ and included as Appendices to the monograph. Food irradiation was first raised as a subject in the journal in 1928! Bread and milk as staples in the British diet are looked at in some detail in terms of their ingredients and health properties. Some appendices have been included just for interest and provide brief snapshots of some of the main food concerns of the time, e.g. The Pure Food Society, the food we eat, food poisoning, a world food policy, the packaging of foods, food hygiene.

    Notes: Tightened UK land-use planning regulation governing retail development, specifically the 1993 and 1996 revisions of the Department of the Environment's PPG6 Town Centres and Retail Developments, appeared to usher in a new era of more restricted and redirected food store expansion. This paper explores to what extent that restriction and redirection has occurred, sifts rhetoric from "reality" in the intense debates that have surrounded PPG6, poses alternative interpretations of the contemporary food store development dynamic, and assesses the food choice implications of these developments.

    Notes: The findings of a study investigating the performance of the UK food and drinks industry against the European Business Excellence Model are presented. The study involved 50 food companies assessing themselves (by questionnaire) against the nine criteria of the model. The major finding of the study was that, on average, food and drinks companies have less well developed management systems than other industries. Its main areas of strength are in resource and process management and its main areas of weakness are in policy and strategy, customer satisfaction, people satisfaction and impact on society. For the food industry to move forward, more companies should consider using self-assessment as a method for identifying improvement opportunities and assessing their progress towards business excellence.

    Notes: The recent history of Poland is characterised by the process of transition from the centrally planned to a market-oriented economy and by the new challenge of preparing for joining the EU. Several authors indicate that Polish consumers are more and more similar to European consumers in terms of consumer behaviour. The research under consideration aims to identify similarities and differences between Polish and Belgian consumers with respect to consumer behaviour towards yoghurt. The choice of the dairy product yoghurt as a research subject is based on its remarkable consumption increase and product innovation rate during the previous decade. A survey of 400 respondents in the urban regions of Gent (Belgium) and Olsztyn (Poland) reveals statistically significant differences in consumption frequency, perception of product attributes and consumer attitude and preference towards yoghurt.

    Notes: A marked increase in the incidence of microbial food poisoning parallels increasing scientific and public concern about microbiological hazards. This literature review highlights the important pathogens involved in the increase and issues salient to developing effective risk-benefit communication with the public about microbial food poisoning. Research into public perceptions of microbiological food hazards is reviewed, together with public attitudes towards one of the technologies that could combat food poisoning: food irradiation. Suggestions for reducing the incidence of microbial food poisoning through effective communication strategies are provided.

    The price schedule required to smooth seasonal milk supply (1999)

    Notes: Develops a method for estimating the monthly milk price schedule needed to counter the effects of seasonality, which is an enduring feature of milk production in the UK. The issue of seasonality has been mostly ignored in studies estimating milk supply functions. In this paper milk supply functions which explicitly take account of seasonality are estimated for Northern Ireland and Scotland. Pre-testing of monthly milk price and milk supply time-series, using an extended HEGY test and an ADF test, indicated the presence of deterministic seasonality. Empirical milk supply models incorporating seasonal dummy variables to account for deterministic seasonality were estimated in the two regions of study. The results of these models were used to calculate the monthly producer milk price schedule required to encourage dairy farmers to produce an even monthly milk supply pattern. These calculations indicated that, in the long run, a peak-to-trough seasonal price differential of around 8 pence per litre would be required to produce an even pattern of milk supply in Scotland, and 11 pence per litre would be required in Northern Ireland.

    Notes: The October 27, 1996 issue of Singapore's The Sunday Times gave the Salut Restaurant and Wine Bar a four star (very good) rating for its food and ambience, and three stars (good) for its service. This was reported barely one month after this venue's opening. Years later, the Salut Restaurant is still greeting customers with French specialities such as foie gras (chopped liver) and escargots (snails) as appetisers; de-boned pigeon as a main course; and a choice of soufflé or crème brûlée for dessert. The restaurant also cooks up other European dishes and the wine bar pours a vast array of wines and liqueurs. The selection of meals at Salut Restaurant and Wine Bar includes dishes that may be difficult to find elsewhere in Singapore; however, prices are among the highest.

    Notes: Selected findings are presented from 152 semi-structured interviews of people aged 75 and over on the theme of dietary beliefs and practices. Participants resided in urban and rural localities in Scotland and were interviewed in their own homes. Data are presented on the perceived importance of food, defining healthy eating, locality and financial constraints. In considering the implications of data for policy and practice the concepts of the enabling locality and "proper" food are considered. Maintaining independence was the priority for participants and food was perceived as a contributing factor to keeping bodies going and limiting the potential for dependence on others.

    Notes: During the late 1990s there has been an increasing interest in the concept of "food deserts" (populated areas with little or no food retail provision). It has been suggested that they are more likely to be found in deprived areas; however there has been little systematic research on their prevalence and distribution. This paper describes a preliminary analysis of the location of food outlets in the Greater Glasgow Health Board Area. Data were collected as part of a project on spatial variations in the price and availability of food. Based on all 79 multiple stores, and a 1 in 9 sample (n = 246) of all non-multiple stores in the area, we did not find any evidence for the existence of food deserts, and found that food stores were more numerous in the more deprived localities and postcode districts in the study site.

    Notes: In moving towards sustainable wastes management, the UK Government has adopted a wastes hierarchy. This hierarchy sets out clearly the priorities for sustainable resource use and wastes management: it ought to be the guiding principle of private and public policy, with the emphasis placed strongly on reducing the amount of raw material used. The House of Commons Environment, Transport & Regional Affairs Committee has noted a pressing need to promote wastes minimisation within industrial and commercial sectors and has recommended the introduction of penalties and incentives to encourage industrial wastes minimisation. Despite this, in the food and retailing sector only around 25 per cent of companies were found to operate wastes minimisation programmes. This paper aims to demonstrate the benefits of wastes minimisation, in both financial and environmental terms, for the food and drink sector. Large multiprocess food and drink companies have found they can make annual savings of greater than one per cent of turnover by implementing wastes minimisation strategies.

    Notes: Explores key trends explaining consumer concerns and actions onanimal welfare. Concludes that concerns are not a fad, but deep-seatedand here to stay. UK livestock production, distribution and processingsystems and practices have evolved, will and should evolve to allow farmanimals "to enjoy a decent life" and to satisfy reasonableconsumer concerns on animal welfare matters. Presents the UK industrywith both threats and opportunities. Livestock products that are animalwelfare-friendly, produced with traditional/natural methods and carry"passports" offer important consumer benefits that canprovide a competitive edge. The farm sector needs to forge allianceswith organizations, such as the RSPCA, which are viewed as credible onwelfare matters by consumers. However, addressing consumer concernsabout animals, per se, will not reverse the declining domesticmarket for livestock products - this will require morecomprehensive, industry-wide efforts to deliver the full range ofbenefits to consumers that they demand from food products in thetwenty-first century.

    Notes: A series of studies, conducted over the period 1989 to 1993, basedon actual purchasing patterns, seeks to quantify the extent of purchaseof organic food and the consumer's commitment. The most commonlyexpressed motives for purchasing organic food have become considerationfor the environment and health reasons. Availability and price are thechief factors which inhibit the purchase of organic food. A profile ofactual purchasers of organic produce shows them to be female aged 30-45,with children and having a higher level of disposable income. Thisresearch has demonstrated that the primary factor in organic foodpurchase is the consumer's level of personal disposable income. Therewould appear to be a distinction between those who claim to beinterested in the environment and those who regularly buy organicproducts.

    Notes: Technical progress and its adoption are recognized as probably themost important source of improvement in the productivity andcompetitiveness of firms in any industry. While progress is an essentialprerequisite for the transfer of technology, focuses on the process oftransfer itself prompted by a lack of research in this area within theNorthern Ireland food-processing industry. The analysis investigatedinnovation and identified a diffusion pattern for the uptake ofinnovations. It also obtained a measure for the rate of technologytransfer and identified the principal factors influencing the process.The results indicated factors that could be used to accelerate thediffusion of new technologies as being the education levels of managers;R&D expenditure; and the profitability of the innovation. There wasalso a suggestion that the poultry and dairy sectors were moreprogressive than the others in their approach to business.

These are exemplified in a specificeveryday context - the consumer's freedom to choose food and drinkproducts. Identifies a number of actual constraints on that freedombefore the main question is tackled: what further restrictions might beconsidered justifiable and desirable? Suggests three categories offactor which might justify such restrictions - psychologicalfactors associated with the maximizing of freedom of choice; safetyfactors concerned with the minimizing of risk; and ethical/socialfactors involving such issues as animal welfare and socio-economicneeds. Concludes that certain restrictions on the consumer's freedom ofchoice may at times be justified by an appeal to other principles andconsiderations.

There isalso familiarity with official nutritional guidelines, despite awidespread perception of contradictory and confusing nutritionalmessages. Finds mistrust of farmers, food companies and the governmentas far as the provision of safe food for the public is concerned. Suchnegative findings by no means represent the whole picture, however.Shows that, in the midst of such perceived contradiction and mistrust ofexternal agencies, there is a personal confidence in dietary decisionmaking and pleasure in food and eating.

Argues that, despite someexceptions, many outlets, especially among hotels and restaurants, leavemuch to be desired. Suggests that too frequently fish is being served tosections of the catering public without any real attempt to match theoffering to consumers' wants. Indicates that alternative cuisines aregrowing in popularity and pose a significant threat to fish catererswho, if they do not improve their product offerings, may sink ratherthan swim.

    Notes: Examines the likely effect of the changes in GATT on the Britishbeef industry and the implications of these changes for the marketingstrategies of British beef producers. The result of GATT changes is thatthere is unlikely to be any incentive for producers to increaseproduction. Instead, marketing strategies will have to centre onincreasing profitability by increasing quality and quality awarenesswith the objective of increasing margins. Examines the production andmarketing of quality beef in the UK and proposes a number of strategiesfor the future.

    Notes: There has been an increase in the consumption of pork in recentyears. Reports on a survey of the attitudes of Dublin consumers to pork.Identifies the quality factors which consumers consider when purchasingand eating pork, in particular pork chops. Determines the relativeimportance of these factors and ascertains consumer attitudes to thequality of pork available. Examines the responses of different marketsegments. Finds that most consumers are happy with the quality ofavailable pork, and leanness is by far the most important quality factorfor consumers when buying pork chops. Marbling should not be visible.Identifies tenderness and flavour as the most important attributes ofthe eating quality of pork chops. Juiciness was the third most importanteating quality factor and many consumers perceived pork to be dry.Suggests that the production of leaner meat must observe any effectsthat proposed changes in procedure may have on these eating qualityattributes. Concludes that payment systems should reflect the consumerdemand for leanness, and ways of payment that reflect consumer needs intenderness and flavour also need to be developed. Finds that, inrelation to market segments, males and the ABC1 socio-economic groupwere more likely to be satisfied with the tenderness of pork chops thanfemales or consumers from other socio-economic groups.

    Notes: An understanding of muscle structure and the physiology of postmortem change occurring in meat are fundamental to the understandingof meat quality. This first article in a series of four examines thestructure of muscle, including the differing types of muscle fibres andthe general microstructure. Discusses the organization of muscle fibresin a muscle system along with the metabolites available to the musclefibre. Gives details relating to how the muscle fibres maintainhomeostasis by utilizing these metabolites after humane slaughter. Inaddition, covers factors influencing the rate of rigor mortis.

    Notes: The government has recently published a National Food Guide poster,The Balance of Good Health and a published programme TheHealth of the Nation. These have aroused controversy, mainly becauseof the way in which they were published and the detail given. Britishnewspaper reports were hostile and the public displayed scepticism. Thepublic would welcome advice on eating habits but are against coercionwhich restricts freedom of choice. Advice needs to be given on how toeat well and in a healthy manner by enjoying food, not by prescription.

    Notes: It is estimated that by the turn of the millennium the world humanpopulation could exceed ten billion. Scientists inevitably are searchingfor effective alternative methods of food preservation. Accordingly,ionization radiation, discovered nearly a hundred years ago when it wasfirst shown to kill micro-organisms in foods, is being increasinglyencouraged as an alternative method of food preservation. The WorldHealth Organization (WHO) has declared irradiation to be "apowerful tool against preventable food losses and food borneillnesses". Low dose irradiation, up to 10KGy dose, has been shownto delay ripening, enhance shelf-life, kill bacteria such as salmonella,listeria, etc., destroy insect infestation, eliminate unwantedsprouting, and in many cases improve flavour and texture of foods. Theconsumer may not be aware, but a staggering tonnage of food is alreadybeing irradiated around the world. Irradiation does not impart anyradioactivity to the food and the irradiated food has been shown to besafe for human consumption. The technique offers yet another possibilityof extending choice in new exotics for the consumer.

    Notes: Several studies have shown that microwave cooking, if properlyused, does not change the nutrient content of foods to a larger extentthan conventional heating. In fact, suggests that there is a tendencytowards greater retention of many micronutrients with microwaving,probably due to the shorter preparation time. Does not describenon-thermal effects. The main problem with microwaving is the unevenheating of the food, which has raised concern regarding microbiologicalsafety. Microwaving infant formula and breast milk has becomeincreasingly popular. The content of nutrients and antibacterial factorsin milk are maintained unchanged provided the final temperature does notexceed 60°C.

    Notes: The question is: should women be encouraged to reduce dietary fats– especially saturated fats - as a measure to preventcardiovascular disease (i.e. heart disease plus stroke)? Presentsevidence to support the conclusion that enhanced levels of bloodcholesterol do not indicate enhanced risk of cardiovascular disease inwomen. Similar evidence supports the conclusion that enhanced bloodcholesterol levels do not indicate enhanced risk of all-cause death,i.e. they do not indicate reduced life expectancy. Hence there is norational basis for adopting a diet designed to reduce cholesterol, e.g.one based on reduced consumption of saturated fat. These conclusionsillustrate the undesirability of pursuing measures to reduce a singledisease - in this case coronary heart disease - in isolationfrom consideration of risk relations for other ailments and for overallhealth.
