Consumers' associations, perceptions and acceptance of meat and plant-based meat alternatives

Fabienne Michel et al.

Summary: The study found that while meat is associated with positive terms, meat alternatives are viewed more negatively. Meat alternatives should closely resemble meat in taste, texture, and ease of preparation to be more appealing. Results from direct comparisons show that meat alternatives are perceived similarly to processed meat products. Eating meat alternatives is perceived to be more appropriate in situations where one eats alone or with family and friends.

Distinguishing meat reducers from unrestricted omnivores, vegetarians and vegans: A comprehensive comparison of Australian consumers

Lenka Malek et al.

Summary: Meat reducers, a growing but understudied subgroup in Australia, exhibit unique meat consumption behaviors, beliefs, and importance placed on egoistic food choice factors. Strong beliefs in the adequacy of meat-free diets and lower importance placed on egoistic food choice factors are predictors of meat reducers compared to unrestricted omnivores. This study provides insight on addressing concerns and motivations of consumers with distinct meat consumption preferences.

The relative importance of primary food choice factors among different consumer groups: A latent profile analysis

Liyuwork Mitiku Dana et al.

Summary: Consumers' food choices are primarily influenced by taste, followed by price, healthiness, and convenience. Different consumer segments prioritize these factors differently, with demographics such as age, gender, residential location, and grocery shopping responsibility playing a role in segment membership. Understanding these drivers is essential for developing targeted nutrition promotion messages and interventions to address obesity and diet-related diseases.

A systematic review on consumer acceptance of alternative proteins: Pulses, algae, insects, plant-based meat alternatives, and cultured meat

M. C. Onwezen et al.

Summary: Consumers' dietary patterns have a significant impact on health and the environment, and one possible solution is to substitute meat consumption with alternative protein sources. This systematic review identifies 91 articles focusing on consumer acceptance of five alternative proteins, showing that acceptance levels vary across different types of proteins with insects and cultured meat having the lowest acceptance. Factors such as taste, health motives, familiarity, attitudes, food neophobia, disgust, and social norms drive consumer acceptance across various alternative proteins.

Food choice drivers of potential lab-grown meat consumers in Australia

Livia Garcez de Oliveira Padilha et al.

Summary: The study conducted latent class cluster analysis on a nationally representative sample of 1,078 Australian food shoppers to explore market potential for lab-grown meat (LGM) in Australia. Six consumer clusters were identified, with three showing willingness to consume LGM and one segment, Prospective LGM eaters (12%), being very willing to consume LGM. Insights from the characteristics of each cluster can help tailor product development and marketing strategies for consumers with the greatest potential to consume LGM.

The power of initial perceived barriers versus motives shaping consumers' willingness to eat cultured meat as a substitute for conventional meat

Wim Verbeke et al.

Summary: This study found that improved animal welfare is the strongest motive for consumers to consider eating cultured meat, while perceived unnaturalness is the biggest barrier. Males are more willing to eat cultured meat, as willingness decreases with age and is lower among vegetarians. Perceived barriers have a greater impact on shaping consumers' willingness to eat cultured meat compared to motives.

A metabolomics comparison of plant-based meat and grass-fed meat indicates large nutritional differences despite comparable Nutrition Facts panels

Stephan van Vliet et al.

Summary: Our study using untargeted metabolomics compared a popular plant-based meat alternative with grass-fed ground beef, revealing a 90% difference in metabolite abundances, including important nutrients exclusively found in each product. This suggests that the two alternatives are not completely interchangeable but can be viewed as complementary sources of nutrients.

How flexible are flexitarians? Examining diversity in dietary patterns, motivations and future intentions

Lenka Malek et al.

Summary: Today's food systems are facing challenges with unhealthy and unsustainable practices, especially with excessive meat consumption in high-income countries. A growing number of consumers are choosing to reduce their meat consumption, known as 'flexitarians'. This study on Australian flexitarians identified five distinct segments, with health being a common motivation for adopting flexitarian diets and animal welfare concerns also playing a role, particularly among heavy meat reducers. Targeted interventions focusing on unique barriers and motivators for each segment could potentially lead to greater reductions in meat consumption.
