Q2

25. Firstly, participants were told that all of the
food was colored using artificial dyes. Each
person was then allowed to choose three items
to eat. This meant they could not select one of
each color. A record was kept of the colors
selected by each person. The results were then
calculated according to food color preferences
overall and preferences by gender.

Q2

27. It has been argued that diet can be affected by the
color of food. Researches have shown that some
people have strong aversions to certain food color
combinations. People were less likely to eat food
if they disliked that color combination. Dee (1994)
found that food color preferences are affected by
age, with green being the least popular food
coloring among children.

Introduction/Background

29. The research indicated that even when
participants were told that all food options were
artificially colored, they still chose savory food
that looked ‘natural’ rather than food dyed blue.
This suggests that adults have preference for
food colors that look natural. However, blue is
not a color associated with food; this might have
distorted the results.

Results and Discussion
EAPP
Q2

31. To sum, the research claims that adults do not
select savory foods dyed blue, if given the
choice of other options of dyed food. The
‘novelty effect’ of blue products, suggested by
previous research, did not hold true for savory
food. The research found out that people
choose savory food on a different basis to sweet
food.
