Notes:
Via "Farm Gate" web site. 1 page., Researchers find "the impacts of advertising and food safety effects to be economically small compared with price and expenditure effects." Also, the economists "believe that generic pork advertising appears to help demand for poultry more than pork."
Found that an advertising campaign increased/improved consumers' awareness of farm-raised catfish (15%) , attitudes toward it (3-6%) and purchases of it (12-13%). Factual content of the ads had less impact on behavior than the mere presence of the ads.
Robert D. Stuart, Jr., president of Quaker Oats Company, testifies that over a seven-year period his company spent $15 million to advertise the nutritional value of Life cereal. "In the end, we found that this message was getting across to only 9% of consumers. Most people were eating it, not because of nutrition, but because they liked it." "It must be understood - unless we simply want to talk to ourselves - that the most nutritious product in the world does no one any good until it is consumed."
