Changing Dietary Patterns
During the historic period, the changing dietary patterns supported the growth of the industrial margarine market. Consuming a healthy diet throughout the life-course helps to prevent malnutrition in all its forms as well as a range of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) and conditions. People are now consuming more foods high in energy, fats, free sugars and salt/sodium and other dietary fiber such as whole grains. For example, according to the World Health Organization (WHO), it is suggested that the intake of saturated fats be reduced to less than 10% of total energy intake and trans-fats to less than 1% of total energy intake. Further, according to the Medical News Report in 2020, the global consumption of processed food accounts for 20 - 60% of a person's daily energy intake, which includes frozen or ready meals, baked goods, packaged bread and processed cheese products. Also, a 2018 consumer food and beverage survey by L.E.K., a US-based management consulting company, of nearly 1,600 consumers, showed that they want health claims to be more nuanced and convey specific attributes. Nearly 93% of respondents stated that they feel obligated to eat healthily at least some of the time. In addition, 63% stated that they strive to eat healthily most of the time, if not always. Consumers are aware of labels, regardless of their level of commitment, with 47% reading labels at least most of the time when purchasing a product. Thus, the changing dietary patterns supported the growth of the industrial margarine market.
