“…However, the claim stating the absence of sugar in the product increased the purchase intent significantly of the NS chocolate samples under the traditional booths and the negative VR environments (Table 3). Humans are rational beings who make systematic use of the information available to them (Jiang et al, 2020;Kan & Fabrigar, 2017), and information regarding the healthy benefits of alternative sweeteners, such as 'no-sugar' could be a motive here for high purchase intent. Similar findings have been noticed previously, where information profoundly affected purchase (Jiang et al, 2020).…”

“…Zander and Hamm [48] discuss the relevance of ethical attributes for the marketing of organic foods, including not only environmental aspects of organic food, but also aspects linked with animal welfare. Many research works reported that animal welfare influences people's food decisions [49], particularly when consuming eggs [50], milk [51] or meat [52,53].…”

This work intended to explore some motivations that influence people’s eating habits towards sustainability. This was an observational, cross-sectional study, carried out by questionnaire survey on a non-probabilistic sample of 10,067 participants from 13 countries (Argentina, Brazil, Croatia, Greece, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Portugal, Serbia, Slovenia, Romania and United States). Results indicated that people prefer fresh local foods from the season, being important because it allows transportation and storage to be reduced, which in many cases implies refrigeration systems and consequent energy expenditure. Although people avoid food waste at home, the awareness for the waste at restaurants still needs to be improved. Consumers seem to prefer foods that have been produced and packed in sustainable ways but still give importance to the package—understandable for food products. The results also indicated significant differences in the food choice motivations between groups for all sociodemographic variables tested (age, sex, marital status, education, professional area, living environment and country), but the association was high only for variable country. Additionally, a tree classification analysis allowed to identify the relative importance of the influential variables on the sustainable food choices, with country being the most important, followed by age and sex. Additionally, discriminant function analysis allowed establishing a model for the relation between country and six variables accounting for preservation of biodiversity, respect for life, save natural resources, save energy, reduce industrial pollution and minimal packaging. Although with some limitations, this study brings valuable insight into some aspects linked with sustainable food choices on a number of countries and how people shape their food choices according to some sustainability issues.

“…While food provenance is often conflated with origin or place (Meah and Watson 2013), it has a broader meaning, especially if we consider it a response to modernity (Reid and Rout 2016). The meaning of provenance from the consumers' perspective has not been confined to the geographical aspect of origin only (Meah and Watson 2013), instead, it includes caring from local to distant farmers ( Meah and Watson 2013;Soon Jan and Wallace Carol 2018); and from human to non-human actors (Jiang et al 2020;Meah and Watson 2013). Provenance has a flexible relationship with the actual conditions of production (Smith Maguire 2013) and it should not be confined to an extrinsic attribute; instead, it is a negotiable, accomplished, integral quality that is socially constructed (Beverland and Farrelly 2010;Grayson and Martinec 2004), and includes spatial, social and cultural dimensions (Morgan et al 2008).…”

This article reviews the concept of provenance from both contemporary and traditional aspects. The incorporation of indigenous meanings and conceptualizations of belonging into provenance are explored. First, we consider how the gradual transformation of marketplaces into market and consumer activism catalyzed the need for provenance. Guided by this, we discuss the meaning of provenance from an indigenous and non-indigenous rationale. Driven by the need for a qualitative understanding of food, the scholarship has utilized different epistemologies to demonstrate how authentic connections are cultivated and protected by animistic approaches. As a tool to mobilize place, we suggest that provenance should be embedded in the immediate local context. Historic place-based indigenous knowledge systems, values, and lifeways should be seen as a model for new projects. This review offers a comprehensive collection of research material with emphasis on a variety of fields including anthropology, economic geography, sociology, and biology, which clarifies the meaning of provenance in alternative food systems. It questions the current practices of spatial confinement by stakeholders and governments that are currently applied to the concepts of provenance in foods, and instead proposes a holistic approach to understand both indigenous and non-indigenous ideologies but with an emphasis on Maori culture and its perspectives.
