Abstract

Nutritional considerations are of increasing importance in some foods. To address demand for nutrition, we estimate a demand system for cereals of different nutrient types, concentrating on fiber and focussing on five Kellogg's cereals with marked differences in fiber content. Results shed light on the role of price in who demands "healthy" foods.
