The Impact Of Changing Consumer Preferences On Baby Food Consumption

Author

Listed:
  • Harris, James Michael

Abstract

This study examines the relationship between processed baby food consumption, socioeconomic factors, and attitudes and awareness concerning baby food safety and nutrition. The results are consistent with the view that recent concerns about safety may have negatively impacted consumption. Several socioeconomic factors were also found to be significant in explaining consumption.
