Question

Does advertising influence children as young as three years old? Researchers at Stanford University conducted a taste test with preschoolers. Each preschooler tasted two identical samples of five food items (hamburger, french fries, chicken nuggets, baby carrots, and milk). For each item, the children tasted one sample wrapped in a McDonald's wrapper and the other sample in an identical, but unbranded, wrapper. Some children tasted the sample in the branded wrapper first, while others tasted the sample in the unbranded wrapper first. Consistently for all food items, the majority of preschoolers preferred the food in the McDonald's wrapper over the one in the unbranded wrapper, even though both samples were identical. [Source: T. N. Robinson, et al. 2007. "Effects of Fast Food Branding on Young Children's Taste Preferences." Archives of Pediatrics and Adolescent Medicine 161: 792-97.] The researchers found that the preschoolers who watched more television or ate more often at McDonald's were more likely to prefer the food wrapped in a McDonald's wrapper. However, is it possible that the children were attracted to the branded wrapper because it had more writing and colors on it, rather than because they recognized the McDonald's logo? They were also curious about whether children would behave differently with the McDonald's signature foods, such as hamburgers, french fries, and chicken nuggets, than they would with foods with less name brand significance, such as apple slices.

Does advertising influence children as young as three years old?
Researchers at Stanford University conducted a taste test with preschoolers. Each preschooler
tasted two identical samples of five food items (hamburger, french fries, chicken nuggets, baby
carrots, and milk). For each item, the children tasted one sample wrapped in a McDonald's wrapper
and the other sample in an identical, but unbranded, wrapper. Some children tasted the sample in
the branded wrapper first, while others tasted the sample in the unbranded wrapper first.
Consistently for all food items, the majority of preschoolers preferred the food in the McDonald's
wrapper over the one in the unbranded wrapper, even though both samples were identical.

The researchers found that the preschoolers who watched more television or ate more often at
McDonald's were more likely to prefer the food wrapped in a McDonald's wrapper. However, is it
possible that the children were attracted to the branded wrapper because it had more writing and

about whether children would behave differently with the McDonald's signature foods, such as
hamburgers, french fries, and chicken nuggets, than they would with foods with less name brand
significance, such as apple slices.
