1994年，加工食品必须标注营养成分表，以方便消费者获取营养信息并促进健康的食物选择。本文回顾了近期的应用研究，探讨消费者如何看待和回应营养标签。我们首先总结文献中发现的健康与营养之间的联系，并在肥胖政策辩论的背景下展开讨论。其次，我们讨论了几种用于实证研究消费者对营养标签反应的方法：（a）调查；（b）利用显示性偏好的非实验方法；（c）基于实验的方法。最后我们进行讨论并提出未来研究的方向。
In 1994, nutritional facts panels became mandatory for processed foods to improve consumer access to nutritional information and to promote healthy food choices. Recent applied work is reviewed here in terms of how consumers value and respond to nutritional labels. We first summarize the health and nutritional links found in the literature and, frame this discussion in terms of the obesity policy debate. Second, we discuss several approaches that have been used to empirically investigate consumer responses to nutritional labels: (a) surveys, (b) nonexperimental approaches utilizing revealed preferences, and (c) experiment-based approaches. We conclude with a discussion and suggest avenues of future research.
